Innovative Study on Palatal Tissue Decomposition and Intraoral Scanner Precision

Posted: November 19, 2024
The study aimed to assess the impact of tissue decomposition on the precision of intraoral scanning for palatal tissue. Results showed that precision was lower in unwashed samples compared to washed samples, with deterioration observed after day 11. Despite this, intraoral scanning remains accurate for postmortem palatal imaging, with the ability to distinguish between individuals for up to six days. Even deteriorated rugae can still be identified with moderate accuracy for up to 20 days.
