    Digital Facebow

    So I've been tasked with figuring out how we could do a digital facebow in 3Shape. I've looked around... I usually only ever see the idea of it being talked about, and one or two mysterious videos on Facebook club that indicate that it's been done, but with no explanations on how. I've been...

    Cerec Scan Body DME for 3Shape

    Hey all. We received stls from a Dr using a Cerec scanner. The case wasn't imported into 3Shape from Sirona, we just took the stls he exported and plugged them into a new case manually. This usually works fine, except we got a scan with this scan body: From what I can see, this is specifically...

    Appended CAD Design Moved?

    Same day, different issue.... We have a full-mouth diagnostic case that we designed in 3Shape all nicely and everything, and all we have to do is make models for it. The way I usually do this is to Copy and Append the CAD design and take the scans out of that, then make a fresh case, select...

    Keystone Scan Bodies

    Hey all, been a while! I've been busy navigating the jungle, but came across something I'm wrestling with. We've gotten a few Keystone implants (Tilobe Max-TL to be specific),one that was fully digital, the other with stone models but we ended up doing a UCLA instead of a digitally designed...

    Implant Studio Anchor Pins

    Relatively simple question but I feel like I'm missing something obvious. Is there a way to add anchor pins in Implant Studio? I'm finding tutorials and things for the process of making surgical guides, but they're always missing this detail. Is there anyone who's done this before who can point...

    Implant Studio, Immediate Load Temp...

    We got a messy one today, lads.... So here's the rundown on what we're trying to accomplish. We have a patient getting implants placed. She has a few teeth on her upper, which are going to be removed so that the arch will become completely edentulous. Like so: The patient is having implants...

    Trios Digital Diagnostic

    Alright, back at it again... So we received a case via Trios to do a digital diagnostic waxup, but we're running into a problem and I'm not sure how to address it. We designed the diagnostic using "temporary pontic on prepared model," finished it all up, copy and appended the design for...

    Hole in 3Shape Crown

    So I'm not sure what happened to this crown. I haven't tried redesigning yet because I was wondering if there might be an actual solution. But my crown has a hole in it somehow. Has anyone seen this before and know how to fix it? Thanks!

    Sagemax... Or Something Like That

    So! Here's something that's been on the back burner for a while that I want to ask you guys with experience about. We have an Ivoclar S1 sintering oven. For some background, our lab sell crowns at two price points: a higher price point for emax zircad crowns, and a lower price point for sagemax...

    Training with Lee Culp...

    So, I'm being sent to North Carolina in a few weeks to train with Lee Culp and his digital right hand (his name is Matt, I actually had a long talk with him on the phone before I was hired here and he basically vetted my capacity to work with software and handle computer issues in general, if...

    Zimmer Eztetic

    This might qualify as a noob question, but has anyone ever dealt with Zimmer Eztetic Implant System? We just got a case from a doctor who used this type of implant. Has anyone dealt with this and knows who I should talk to to get the dmes for 3Shape and analogs for the models? I assume Zimmer...

    Change Colors for Pre/Double Prep?

    Hey all: quick question. In the scan software for 3Shape, the Double Prep is pink, and the Pre-Prep/Waxup is blue. Once it's in the design software, though, they're both blue. We have a case with some finicky alignment with the the tissue and it's much easier to get it aligned in the design...

    Good Smile Libraries?

    Hey all. So I'm not really a designer technician, I'm just the CAM/IT person. But our technicians are looking for a better anterior library (mandibular, particularly) than the ones we have (and we have a lot we don't even use :rolleyes:). Does anyone have any recommendations based on what they...
