Summary

The comfort of impression methods and the time they require are important because it is known that children are more stressed in their encounter with the dentist than the elderly, and their chairside times are shorter. The comparison of impression methods in terms of comfort, preference, and time has been studied only in young adults or adult patients. thus this study will assess pediatric patient comfort, time, and preference between digital scans and rubber base impressions.

Conditions

  • Pediatric Patient With Early Loss of Primary Teeth

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Intraoral Scanning

Participants will first undergo intraoral scanning using a digital scanner to capture a 3D image of their dental arches. The procedure is non-invasive and requires no impression material. After one week, the same participants will undergo a polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) impression using conventional impression trays and materials

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

PVS Impression

Participants will first undergo a polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) impression, where an impression tray filled with PVS material is used to capture the shape of their dental arches. After one week, the same participants will undergo intraoral scanning using a digital scanner for a 3D image of their dentition.
