[QUOTE="charles007, post: 322133, member: 9"] Its been so long since designing anything I can't tell you exactly what I did on cutbacks on anteriors without being on my scanner. Will give it a shot. Use a much lower cutback number than on posteriors for your ideal centric occlusion. Good idea to mill one crown in wax just to check for your ideal centric occlusion. Now use your virtual articulator and look at the coloring and thickness as you move in excursive movements. Remove,smooth off the high areas until you get ideal occlusion, and check thickness, may want to add thickness to create nicer anatomy. Milling a few in wax will teach you exactly what coloring to look for. On posteriors, check the coloring also, this way you want take crowns to far out of occlusion accidentally. Checking the coloring will also allow you to add or take away material for nicer anatomy and have ideal occlusion. Not being an expert in Exocad, I have learned occlusion by numbers can fool you but occlusion using coloring doesn't lie. Hope this helps if your not already doing something similar to this when designing. This is an edited from my post hours ago... [/QUOTE]
