Taking images from the right lower jaw with an intraoral scanner
The patients' mandibular arches were scanned with 4 different intraoral scanners (IOS) (Trios 3, 3Shape; Primescan, Dentsply; Element 5D, iTero; Lumina, iTero) prior to the procedure, and the obtained digital impressions were stored as a standard tessellation language (STL) file. The 2nd premolar, 1st, and 2nd molar teeth were isolated with a rubber dam (medium; Nic Tone, Manufacturera Dental Continental) to be included in the operation field. Clamps were placed on the 2nd premolar and 2nd molar teeth. Subsequently, the mesh hole area was rescanned starting on the occlusal surface of the second molar, moving toward the occlusal of the first molar to the occlusal of the second premolar, then the buccal surfaces of the second premolar, followed by the first molar and second molar.
Clamp placement on canine and 2nd molar teeth and rubberdam rubber band insertion
"The 2nd premolar, 1st, and 2nd molar teeth were isolated with a rubber dam (medium; Nic Tone, Manufacturera Dental Continental) to be included in the operation field. Clamps were placed on the 2nd premolar and 2nd molar teeth. It was aimed to facilitate the second scanning process by expanding the isolation area to include 3 teeth.~A flowable composite was applied by placing Teflon tape on the occlusal surface of the 1st molar to create a difference in its morphology."
