The DD protocol used a three-visit workflow with mucostatic intraoral scanning and three-dimensional (3D) printing dentures. Participants and outcome assessors were blinded.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Statistical Analysis Used:<\/jats:title>\n \n Outcomes were assessed after the first meal, at 24 h, and at 1.5 months using a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for satisfaction and the Oral Health Impact Profile-14 for OHRQoL. Data were analyzed using Mann\u2013Whitney\n U<\/jats:italic>\n -tests.\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results:<\/jats:title>\n \n Overall VAS satisfaction showed no significant intergroup differences (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n > 0.05). At 24 h, the DD group reported significantly higher negative impacts (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.05) on phonetics, taste perception, and food avoidance. By 1.5 months, most OHRQoL dimensions in the DD group normalized to match the CD group, but phonetic difficulties remained significantly higher (\n P<\/jats:italic>\n < 0.05).\n <\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n 3D-printed dentures offer satisfaction comparable to conventional methods while reducing clinical visits. Early functional limitations resolve rapidly, but persistent phonetic issues suggest that standardized computer-aided design protocols may benefit from patient-specific customization to optimize speech outcomes in mobile dental settings.<\/jats:p>\n
