Comparison of Restoration Recommendation and Adjustment Time of AI Belong to Two Different CAD Software

Abstract

Objectives: The purpose of the in vitro study is to compare the restoration recommendation time and adjustment process of artificial intelligence (AI) belonging to two different digital design software. Materials and Methods: The maxillary right first premolar tooth was prepared for zirconia all-ceramic crown restoration in a phantom model (n=26). Then, models were scanned using an intraoral scanner, and the opposing arch, and the right- and left-sided occlusions were also recorded. Data were transferred to two computer-aided design software programs (Group Exocad and Group 3Shape) and two design processes were used. In both systems, fully anatomical monolithic zirconia crown design processes were carried out in library mode. The time taken by the AI to recommend the restoration and the time the dental technician spent adjusting the restoration were recorded and were analyzed statistically, both separately and in comparison, to one another (P<.05). Results: Statistically significant differences were found between the values of AI restoration recommendation time and dental technician restoration adjustment time according to the different software designs (P<.05). Group Exocad showed lower values than Group 3Shape (P<.001). Conclusions: Exocad provides a faster and easier restoration design in comparison with the 3Shape Dental System.
