the comma is the European way
this is an issue I'm trying to figure out right now.. when we get a prep with sharp corners I'm having to make adjustments to fit. Are you using the block out feature? Ours is currently set at 0
Our theory with the anticipated milling is that you increase the size because it grinds a little more off for undercuts and sharp edges, etc. But I understand you don't want to go to high as you could balloon the crown.
- No, this parameter does not get applied to undercuts in exocad at all. Has nothing to do with that.
Only sharp edge, and radii smaller than your settings in the parameters for anticipated milling.
- Now, there is a setting for blocking out undercuts! You can choose to block out to a perfect 0 degree to have opposing walls or different abutments for a bridge w/completely parallel walls, or add value to allow a
range of insertion path by blocking out with 1, or 2, or more degrees.
- This makes walls slightly divergent to have looser fit and allow a small range of insertion.
Useful if the adjacent tooth is leaning over to the abutments, and you are worried about having a pin-point contact, or too tight of a draw. Something like that.....
- Then, of course there are the various cement spacer parameters.
- Then, you can even manually add material to the die to have selective spacing added in only certain areas of concern. Just like using Zap-it, or some other material to block-out analog on a stone die. You modify the scan-data (mesh) of the actual die(s).
