Currently, dentists determine this measurement manually using clinical judgment, which can sometimes lead to inconsistent results. This study will compare the traditional manual measurement method with a digital face scanning technique. Eighteen completely edentulous (toothless) participants will be enrolled. Each participant will receive two sets of complete dentures: one set fabricated using the new digital face scanning technique and one set fabricated using the traditional method. Researchers will take facial measurements using both a digital caliper directly on the patient's face and a software tool on the 3D scans. The results will help determine if digital
