Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to promote digitalization in the fabrication of dentures, it is necessary to clarify the difference between the shape of the alveolar ridge taken by optical impression and conventional impression. Therefore, our purposes were to clarify the accuracy of the optical impression of the alveolar ridge in the missing teeth model and the actual deviation between the conventional impression and the optical impression. As the result of the deviation analysis of the distal extension missing of the mandibular jaw, the deviation in the overlay image was recognized depending on bilateral/unilateral distal extension missing and the number of missing teeth. Therefore, it was suggested that the optical impression method is influenced by the position of the defect and the number of missing teeth compared with the conventional impression method.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

日本における欠損歯数は減少傾向にあるものの,高齢者の欠損補綴に有床義歯を選択することは多い.材料の削減や印象材の不快感誤嚥・誤飲を回避するためにも光学印象法は大きなメリットを有し,近年急速に進展してきている.一方で,有床義歯への使用にはまだまだ課題が多い.本研究成果により,顎堤粘膜部における光学印象採得の知見が得られたことで今後の有床義歯への光学印象の臨床応用が進展すると考えられる.
