Importing scans & Editing scans.mp4
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.
Finally, click Create Patient ****to ****import your scans.
Before proceeding, you will want to make sure your scans are in occlusion, oriented correctly, and trimmed down.
Scans can be imported either solid or hollow. If hollow, ArchForm will automatically cap the scans.
Your arches should be positioned within the arch cutout, oriented upright, and facing forward. If they are not as pictured, follow the instructions below.
