The same symbol after SD indicates differences in precision between scanner pairs (Tukey-adjustment for multiple comparison). Minimum significant difference across scanners: 8.8 μm, 9.8 μm, 19.4 μm for single crown (SC), partial prosthesis (PP) and full arch (FA), respectively. ¹p-value testing the interaction between scanner and context (SC vs. PP vs. FA) from non-parametric, Kruskall-Wallis test. A p-value > 0.05 indicates no difference in scanner precision according to the context
