How to create separate margin lines for coping and crown on the same tooth in Dental Designer
01/08/2024How to create separate margin lines for coping and crown on the same tooth in Dental Designer
Currently, Dental Designer does not support creating different margin lines for a coping and crown on the same tooth within a single order.
This limitation can present challenges for users who need to design a coping on a half-die and a crown down to the margin line on the same tooth.
The ability to create different margin lines for coping and crown within a single order is under consideration for future versions of Dental System.
Below is an explanation of the issue and a workaround:
The Issue
When designing a coping and crown on the same tooth in a single order, the margin line is shared between both, which may not be ideal.
Workaround
1. Create a new order for the coping only;
2. Design and produce the coping;
3. Install it in the patient's mouth.
4. Re-scan and create a new order for the crown;
5. Proceed with designing the crown.
