This compilation of sources presents a scoping review exploring the application and relevance of intraoral scanners (IOS) in periodontal diagnosis. The review examines studies over the past decade that utilize IOS, sometimes in combination with cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), to assess various periodontal outcomes, including gingival thickness, keratinized tissue height, and gingival recession. While highlighting the accuracy and reproducibility of IOS for soft tissue measurements and its potential in areas like teledentistry, the sources also acknowledge limitations such as inconsistent plaque detection, the need for supplementary software, and the ongoing reliance on traditional methods for certain diagnostic parameters. Overall, the review indicates that IOS is a promising tool for enhancing periodontal care within a digital framework, though further advancements and standardization are needed for its full integration.
