Internal Jugular Vein Ultrasound for Volume Status Assessment in Haemodialysis

To Evaluate accuracy of Internal Jugular Vein Point-of-Care ultrasound for volume status evaluation in chronic haemodialysis

Split-Mouth Comparison of Invisalign Attachments

This study evaluates how accurately the attachments used in Invisalign treatment (Align Technology Inc., San Jose, CA, USA) match their planned shapes and sizes in the ClinCheck software (ClinCheck®, Align Technology Inc., San Jose, CA, USA). Attachments are small tooth-colored bumps that help clear aligners grip the teeth and move them effectively. The investigators are comparing two types of attachments: optimized and conventional, to determine which is bonded to the tooth more accurately and maintains its shape better over time. Participants beginning Invisalign treatment will have attachments placed as part of their normal care. Digital scans will be taken immediately after placement and during follow-up visits to assess attachment accuracy and wear. The goal is to identify which attachment design provides greater precision and durability to improve the predictability and efficiency of Invisalign treatment planning.

Assessment of The Accuracy of Complete Crown 3D Superimposition Technique Relative to The Gold Standard Technique for Digital Quantification of Volumetric Soft Tissue Changes in The Esthetic Zone

The aim of this study is to assess the precision of the complete crown technique employed for the superimposition of 3D models, specifically in the quantitative volumetric evaluation of gingival tissues. This technique was initially introduced in an in-vitro study by Dritsas et al. (2023) as a means to achieve an accurate, reproducible, and simple method for quantification of gingival recession. This study will involve the analysis of digital models in. ply format acquired through intraoral scanning of patients scheduled for esthetic crown lengthening, with predefined inclusion and exclusion
