[Research and development of intraoral scanning in edentulous soft tissue].

During the complete denture restoration process, accurate impression making is a crucial step for achieving good denture retention. With the increasing popularity of intraoral scanning technology in fixed restoration, the use of intraoral scanning technology in complete denture restoration for edentulous jaw has also been developed. This article systematically reviews the research progress and application of intraoral scanning of edentulous soft tissue, focusing on difficulties in intraoral scanning of edentulous jaws, scanning accuracy, clinical application effects, as well as precautions involved. The aim is to provide references for clinical application.
