Abstract

Abstract A straightforward digital method of evaluating wear volume loss is described. This method allows the measurement of the wear by analyzing only the three-dimensional scan dataset of the worn specimen without needing a separate baseline scan. Compared to the conventional method, involving superimposition of the two datasets scanned before and after the wear test, this method can reduce labor and accuracy errors caused by repeated scans and superimposition procedures. Further, this analysis can be conducted using free computer-aided design software, which makes it more efficient for the analysis of wear volume loss of restorative materials.
