Output teeth are disabled

[Chris]

When done with a denture design, the output teeth are disabled so I can’t save them. This is true with Exocad generic etc. Any idea what to do?

Thanks

That happens with the ZRS library teeth because they are digitally signed or something, so you can’t save them. That shouldn’t happen with the exocad generic library though. I’d have to take a look at your scene file. Can you Dropbox that to me and I’ll take a look?

[Chris]

I was able to save the Exocad Generic teeth, But sometimes I get a message saying that intersections will cause the teeth to not fit the base. Why? How to deal? Thanks

It always helps to add a screenshot to what you’re describing. Sometimes there are proximal intersections so you’ll have to reposition the teeth. Is that what you’re talking about?

[Chris]

The output save seems to be a tooth library thing. The proximal intersection thing I fixed by hitting cahin mode before moving on. If I ignore the proximal warning, I assume the teeth will not be correctable later….

Yes… Chain Mode keeps all the teeth in contact and not intersecting. Good call!
