Purpose: This study was conducted to evaluate the influence of contamination of the scan-mirror on the accuracy of obtained scan data by using two type of intra-oral scanner. Materials & methods: After printing the Crown & inlay specimens according to the ISO standard, the data values of the specimens were calculated using a model scanner and two intra-oral scanners. Experimental groups were classified into three groups according to cleanliness of scan-mirror. Each group performed 10 repeated scans. Data analysis was performed with statistical software (SPSS 25, IBM Corp., Armonk, New York, USA) to check the normality of data sets andA NOVA & Bonferroni test was performed for multiple comparisons betwen groups. Results: The d1(top diameter of cylinder), d2(bottom diameter of cylinder), h(cylinder height) values of the crown specimens and d1(top diameter of cavity), d2(bottom diameter of cavity), h(cavity height) of the inlay specimens compared with the reference data using two intra-oral scanners were similar for each group. Discussion: In the scanning process, it was observed on the screen that a data value that deviated from the normal range was inputted in the group with higher level of contamination, but they were removed through the software’s own filtering and post-processing, and it was found that there was no significant effect on the result values. Conclusion: Under the conditions of this study, as the degree of contamination of the scan-mirror surface increased, an inaccurate capture screen appeared, but it did not significantly affect the accuracy and percision of the scan data.
