About

The goal of this clinical trial] is to learn if digital pick up can affect occlusal forces on teeth in completely edentulous patients restored with digital complete overdenturs. The main question it aims to answer is:

Researchers will compare digital vs functional pick-up techniques to see if it affects occlusal force.

Participants will be asked to bite on digital articulating paper (occlusense).
