Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Teeth scan with intraoral scanner (Trios, 3 Shape, Denmark)

Teeth scan with intraoral scanner (Trios, 3 Shape, Denmark): Intraoral scanner will be use to monitor the changes of the teeth over time. Intraoral scanners are devices that capture three-dimensional images of teeth and are used as an alternative to conventional dental impressions.

Study summary

The study is designed as a pilot study. The primary objective of the current study is to collect data on the expression and progression of tooth structure loss in dental students under stressful conditions and different dietary habits using intraoral scanners (IOS). Stress levels will be evaluated using Percived Stress Scale (PSS-10). Eating habits will be queried using reflux and dietary questionnaires. The data obtained will later be used in the case-control design of a multicenter study on the same topic. Conducting the pilot study will allow for a critical evaluation of the study's design, participant retention rate, and recruitment process.
