15.3 Scanning a basic posterior preparation
Goals:
• 100% of the prep and interprox. contact areas
• 90% of the adjacent teeth
• Good axial data (buccal and lingual) for design 2-3 mm
gingival tissue on buccal and lingual
NOTE
Make sure the first scan is taken at a 90 degree angle to
the occlusal surface. If the first scan is not optimal, delete
it and retake it.
The first scan is the most important scan because it
determines the default orientation.
The angle of the first scan should be an occlusal scan.
