Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
The introduction of dental digital impressions was first made by Dr. Francois Duret in 1974. In early 1980s, Werner Mörmann and Marco Brandestini presented their concept of chairside CAD/CAM technology for the fabrication of ceramic restorations, a technology which was branded as CEREC (computer-assisted CERamic REConstruction). Today there are multiple intraoral and laboratory scanners in the dental market. These scanners use different recording methods, including color-coded fringe projection pulsed light, triangulation/color-coded fringe projection, parallel confocal recording, active wavefront sampling, projected pattern triangulation, confocal, monochrome fringe projection/disparity, and confocal/moire effect. With the evolution of the hardware and associated software, the accuracy of the scanners is becoming very high, equaling or even surpassing that of elastomeric (polyvinylsiloxanes, polyether, and vinylsiloxanethers) impression materials. This fact will make digital intraoral scanning as the predominant method of impression taking for fixed, removable and implant restorations in the near future.
