Import, Trim, Segment Scans.mp4
Creating a New Patient
To start, click on the top bar where the current patient's name is displayed. If you're using the software for the first time, it says "Sample Patient".
In the patient list, click + New Patients**.** This brings up the create patient page.
Note: When exporting the scans from your scanner, select the option listed as Separate Files in Occlusion or similar, so that the scans will come in occlusion.
The imported arches should be positioned within the arch cutout, in occlusion, oriented upright, facing forward and trimmed down. The correct orientation is crucial for later operations.
Arches in occlusion, oriented upright, and facing forward and trimmed down.
To orient scans, you can click Orient Scans to have the software automatically orient the scans. And you can use the rotation arrows to manually flip the model around until it is upright and facing forward.
To clean up scans, you can use Trim, Extrude, Pinch, Sculpt, Smooth, and Clean tools.
Notes:
If the scans are color scans, click Auto Trim to trim the scans automatically.
If your cut removes the side you wanted to keep, click the Undo button and try again, making a smaller cut.
You can use reference planes by checking the Show Planes checkbox as needed.
Once the scans are orientated correctly, click Next to proceed to the next step.
