[QUOTE="Wainwright, post: 296298, member: 20457"] Like [USER=19882]@Lighthouse[/USER] said it really varies quite a bit based on the digital-analog system, hard to nail down the "solve all" solution. Also the way the parts snap in or screw in have a pretty big range, some better than others. I'm planning to make a video going through some best practices for implant models in the near future but for now here are a few tips. Use the select base feature to snap the bottom part of the implant analog geometry, see photo. Use the smallest possible supports to make sure that the surface is as correct as possible, again see photo Lastly two photos with a 40 power microscope camera showing the results. One more note, this is not unique to Formlabs but all 3D printing, implant models are some of the most difficult parts to print in dental. All things must be as correct as possible, nesting, resin tank clarity, printer health, and post processing. Good luck, I hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
