Refinement

Includes FREE refinement!

- 2x Refiner sessions FREE if treatment goes off track
- Refiners must be within expected timeline of previous aligners plus 4 weeks. Ie 2-4 weeks per aligner. Eg 5 aligners =24 weeks
- Refinement after free period or after 2 free sessions is charged at £60 per refiner session if upto 4 refiners per arch. Over four refiners requires full re-case design.

Upload your opposing stl models during check out.

Within 7 days you will receive back;

- A DDA Aligner Report

- Collision IPR Data

- A video mockup showing the proposed movements  

- A set of ready to print DDA Aligner STL Models

N.B. It is the responsibility of the clinician to approve;

- The proposed movements.

- The proposed IPR.

- The production of the aligners using the STL Models either in house or via a production lab.

To use this service, you are agreeing that you;

- Have completed a DDA Aligner Training Course (or approved partner training) and have received a certificate for completion of training.

- Take full responsibility as a qualified Dental Clinician in the prescription, production and use of orthodontic clear aligners.

Free Refinement Conditions;

N.B. This is for refinement of an existing case ONLY and on the following conditions;

- Refinement should be undertaken ONLY if the case isnt tracking if mid treatment.

- If the case is mid treatment and requires refinement, please ensure the IPR report has been followed.

- If mid treatment and the uploaded scan matches the number previously designed for the next step and no refinement is found to be necessary to keep on track then no refiners will be advised and you should continue to use the next STLs initially produced.,

- If end of treatment, the maximum free refinement allowed is 2 refinement sessions with new STLs designed. Refinement after free period or after 2 free sessions is charged at £60 per refiner session if upto 4 refiners per arch. Over four refiners requires full re-case design.

- If end of treatment, refinement must commence within a reasonable and expected end of treatment. Refiners must be within expected timeline of previous aligners plus 4 weeks. Ie 2-4 weeks per aligner. Eg 5 aligners =24 weeks

Guided surgery is an implant placement technique that includes the following steps: diagnosis, virtual planning and 3D positioning before placement using a 3D Printed or Milled drill guide.

The main advantage of computer assisted prosthetically designed planning is working with 3D views of the patient's CBCT and intraoral anatomy. By utilising virtual mockups of the final position of the eventual prosthesis 3D planning can be prosthetically guided to enable a more predictable final position of the dental implant and also the prosthesis.

With the IDDA Universal Guided Surgery Kit it is possible to carry out guided computer-assisted surgery with ANY implant manufacturer having diverse morphologies, both with a cylindrical and tapered morphology with a sleeveless approach that is tailored to the specific system required.

Features of the IDDA Printer;

• 【Smart and Fast Slicing Software】 comes with the latest version of CHITUBOX Slicing Software which gives you extraordinary user experience. CHITUBOX takes only 1 minute to slice 30Mb .stl model files while the open-sourced slicing software would take up to 10minutes.
• 【Resin saving and Better Printing】CHITUBOX allows you to hollow out your model before slicing which could save your resin dramatically during photocuring process. Equiped with 40W UV lights and using resin, you can get a better pritning result.
• 【Smart and Convenient】3.5'' inch color touch screen equipped with the latest ChiTu 5.0 system makes it very easy for off-line printing. The build platform with steel ball balancing structure inside allows you to start printing within 5 minutes after assembly.
• 【High Precision and Resolution uses a 2560x1440 2K HD masking LCD as to provide accurate printing with XY axis resolution of 0.00185inches / 0.047mm

Description

This Package contains 3D Files (binary STL and EXOCAD format) of a selection from the natural Anteriores Teeth collection:

Installation tutorial for Exocad: Download PDF (1,4 MB)

For each shape the package contains:

– One STL and EXOCAD 3D file of the uncut model with gingiva

– One STL and EXOCAD 3D file containing 6 or 8 single teeth with root parts.
With one preview image (jpg):

The teeth are symmetrical. The Teeth of one side were mirrored.

The first premolars are standard teeth.

The file contains all teeth in their natural position. Some 3D programs can split this file in single components at import.

The roots are open at the end.

– 6 or 8 separate STL and EXOCAD 3D files containing each single tooth with root parts. These are the same geometries as from 2. just as separate files for those 3D programs that cannot split the single file in components.

– One original clinical Photo from the Book Anteriores.
