Popis: Purpose: This work evaluates the internal and marginal adaptation of implant-assisted overdenture cobalt–chromium (Co–Cr) bars manufactured using conventional as well as CAD/CAM subtractive and selective laser melting (SLM) utilizing two scanning techniques. Methods: An edentulous study model containing four dental implants placed at teeth sites 36, 33, 43, and 46 was used. The study cast was scanned and compared to the virtual casts developed from two scanning techniques, straight and zigzag motion, using the in silico superimposition process. Then, conventional techniques were used to produce full-arch bars that were compared to the bars fabricated using the two scanning techniques and CAD/CAM subtractive and additive techniques. Results: The conventional impression and casting techniques had the smallest marginal gap among the groups (P-value
