All or nothing
Function
The software guides the dental techni-
cian clearly through the individual sta-
ges to the accurate CAD models. This
creates models on the screen with a
gingival mask (Fig. 3 and 16), antago-
nist models (Fig. 8 to 9a), working mo-
del including dies (Fig. 5), diagnostic
models (Fig. 7 and 17) and last but not
least a buccal scan (Fig. 13). Basically
this is just one scan, which serves as a
matrix to insert and align the upper
and lower jaws in the correct position
(Fig. 14) in the virtual articulator. Over-
all it is rather a scan process that di-
rects the dental technician to the CAD
software (Fig. 19) where the technician
can begin with the design of the ente-
red indication.
All the data of the scan are saved on
drive D under Constructions.
