[QUOTE="CoolHandLuke, post: 145804, member: 4850"] yes we layer all anteriors. the only "trouble" the ceramists tell me is they would prefer the tissue regions were softer or to have a second model to displace the tissue however this might more be due to the age of the ceramist rather than an actual problem with the model. i say that with no disrespect - because truly nothing can evolve and still utilize the same procedures. something must change and although i will explore a soft tissue print tomorrow (in software only - the printer is currently out of soft tissue material) i have made no guarantees or promises. if you design it right and know the size of the growth you can press an emax model-free. trim the contacts a bit more than usual, take it out of the bite a fraction more, pull the cusps down a hair... of course that's just guesstimating. its got to go through 3 more sets of eyes before it goes out the door. 1 emax invester/devester, 1 ceramist to check and modify any stain, and glaze, then the QC. those 3 people will pass a bur over it, add glaze, and possibly add or remove after i am finished designing. so i don't change anything except the minimum thickness value. if i were all by myself - i think i would still do that, and rely on polishing to take off enough from the contacts, bite, and bulk. 5 more minutes polishing and no worries of underbuilding - seems fine by me.
