[QUOTE="DAL Claxton, post: 325027, member: 22777"] Most printers can handle it if you take the model, with the Anatomic Teeth overlaying it, then saving the scene file as an STL. Not always 100%, but most can manage the print. Other options: Right click the model and "freeform model" then save each anatomic crown shape as an stl (you can only use savable libraries, so no ZRS) then go to the attachment function in the freeform model and add each one back on additively. other one - take the saved STL scene of the teeth and model, then drag it into meshmixer and make it solid with high accuracy. Not my favorite going outside Exocad. Right now Exocad has in Beta with Plovdiv where once you make the model you can right click the background and get "generate waxup model" or something, but it currently only saves the scene with teeth overlaying the model like my first suggestion. They're working on making it water tight however. I'll have to look at some ideas for bar and denture. Any attachments on that, or just suction fit? Hopefully some other folk chime in with ideas as well!!! Wavey [/QUOTE]
