[QUOTE="JMN, post: 336592, member: 8469"] Dude, sorry. You're genuiinely looking for help and I'm pretending I'm a comedian. Denture tooth files for digital dentures have to be made with a highly specific sub-brand of teeth. Normal teeth have way too much slack in tolerance, and worse, are not mounted in any machine capable way. I'm assuming you're looking to use a workflow that is by one of the teeth makers you list. Also, call them and ask. They want to sell teeth, they'll help you buy teeth. As far as normal carded denture teeth: IF DWOS allows you to create your own libraries, you can make one yourself by scanning in all the cards you want, but! You will need to mill them from your own PMMA or print them yourself. The carded teeth will not 'drop in', but need massaging to get to fitting into most places that don't have 20 years of edentulism. The basal surface of the tooth needing to be modified at least to fit the milled/printed base precludes normal carded teeth from being used. There's no method to mount them for the mill to remove the right places. If you have any more or any follow up questions, feel welcome to ask. Just got the free time to get this answer since nobody else had the chance yet first. [/QUOTE]
