The preparation and buccal bite model appear. If the
preparation is an upper tooth, the preparation model
appears at the top of the screen. If the preparation is a
lower tooth, the preparation model appears at the bottom
of the screen.
2. Look for a distinctive feature on both models.
3. Click directly on a distinctive feature in the buccal bite and
drag the model until the pointer is directly over the same
distinctive feature on the preparation model.
As you drag the buccal bite model down, it will disappear
behind the preparation model. It is important to know the
point that you grabbed and drag it to the same point on
the preparation model.
Distinctive features can include a cusp tip, groove, unique
gingiva, etc.
Do NOT click on smooth/round parts of the model or the
model base.
