1 00:00:11,533 --> 00:00:17,066 This Quick Guide tutorial from exocad shows how to use the "Retention" cutback library 2 00:00:17,066 --> 00:00:20,432 to design an implant bridge type wrap around. 3 00:00:21,233 --> 00:00:28,133 You may try this with the demo sample called "Screw retained implant Bridge with virtual gingiva design". 4 00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:36,566 Starting with version 2016, there are a new options for waxup restoration types called "design waxup digitally". 5 00:00:38,400 --> 00:00:43,100 Furthermore, for all restoration types there is now a virtual gingiva design mode. 6 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:49,100 The same modes are also available for pontics. 7 00:00:50,900 --> 00:00:57,700 You will find more detailed information about virtual waxup and gingiva design in a separate video tutorial. 8 00:00:59,333 --> 00:01:01,233 Let's proceed to the design. 9 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:12,666 If not required, you can skip the emergence profile step and proceed to the next step 10 00:01:12,666 --> 00:01:15,199 which will be the tooth placement. 11 00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:22,233 Make sure that you use the correct tooth library. Only exocad's "generic" library includes the retention shapes. 12 00:01:22,233 --> 00:01:26,233 Why not use the "Chain Mode" to do the tooth placement. 13 00:01:27,566 --> 00:01:32,832 You will find more information about the chain mode in a separate video tutorial. 14 00:01:37,666 --> 00:01:41,132 It is a very nice tool to design full arch setups. 15 00:01:54,366 --> 00:01:56,499 Let's skip the free-forming. 16 00:01:57,900 --> 00:02:02,733 Select "Design virtual gingiva" in the "Virtual Waxup Bottom" dialog. 17 00:02:02,733 --> 00:02:07,266 Click "Apply" to start blocking out the virtual gingiva's bottom. 18 00:02:08,500 --> 00:02:13,666 A separate video tutorial will explain the available settings in this dialog. 19 00:02:14,966 --> 00:02:19,999 Proceed to the gingiva design step to draw the margin of the gingiva. 20 00:02:20,966 --> 00:02:30,166 For these wrap around implant bridges, I recommend to hide the anatomical teeth in order to design a smaller gingiva area than you would normally do, 21 00:02:30,166 --> 00:02:36,866 as we just use it to design the major connector of the implant bridge and not really to design a gingiva. 22 00:02:38,366 --> 00:02:45,466 To achieve this, draw the margin line a little bit wider than the final restoration's major connector. will look like. 23 00:02:54,100 --> 00:02:57,333 Then proceed to the gingiva design step. 24 00:03:00,300 --> 00:03:04,300 This step can be skipped as the gingiva will be shrinked later. 25 00:03:04,300 --> 00:03:09,133 We directly proceed to shrinking the anatomical teeth. 26 00:03:10,666 --> 00:03:15,599 In this important step, you can now select between different cutback libraries. 27 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:18,700 Let's try the retentions with 1 mm diameter. 28 00:03:18,700 --> 00:03:24,566 You will find more general information about all cutback libraries in a separate video tutorial. 29 00:03:29,366 --> 00:03:32,299 Alternatively, select retentions with 2 mm diameter. 30 00:03:32,300 --> 00:03:36,900 Click "Apply" when you have selected the desired library 31 00:03:39,566 --> 00:03:41,966 and proceed to the next step, 32 00:03:41,966 --> 00:03:45,266 which is free-forming the retentions. 33 00:03:45,966 --> 00:03:49,799 Before you do that, I recommend to switch to the Expert mode 34 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:55,866 and choose "Tooth Placement" to do some fine-tweaking on the retentions' positions, if necessary. 35 00:03:57,366 --> 00:04:03,199 Here you have exactly the same placement features as in the tooth placement. 36 00:04:03,766 --> 00:04:07,766 You can still move, rotate and scale the cutback libraries. 37 00:04:09,200 --> 00:04:15,733 On teeth with implants I try to avoid placing the retentions in the areas of the screw channels, 38 00:04:15,733 --> 00:04:19,733 as the screw channels may cut away parts of the retentions. 39 00:04:44,833 --> 00:04:48,833 Here it is even possible to free-form the retentions. 40 00:04:54,700 --> 00:04:57,700 "Cusps" allows you to modify half of the retentions, 41 00:05:03,566 --> 00:05:05,866 "Tooth Parts" modifies just areas, 42 00:05:12,500 --> 00:05:15,700 "Entire Tooth" modifies the whole retention, 43 00:05:24,566 --> 00:05:27,332 and "Ridge" affects just very small parts. 44 00:05:38,133 --> 00:05:42,733 Note that shrinking the gingiva is only possible in the Expert mode. 45 00:05:42,733 --> 00:05:49,366 There are different ways to shrink the gingiva. This will be explained in a separate video tutorial. 46 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,000 In our case, we simply want to shrink the entire gingiva. 47 00:05:54,000 --> 00:06:01,700 To do this, we deactivate the "Auto select gingiva" and we clear all blue areas from being excluded from shrinking. 48 00:06:01,700 --> 00:06:04,200 Choose a shrinking depth of 1 mm. 49 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:11,666 Click "Apply" to start shrinking. 50 00:06:13,333 --> 00:06:17,566 Click "OK" to close the "Shrink Gingiva Design Part" dialog, 51 00:06:17,566 --> 00:06:21,566 and choose "Free-form Gingiva" in the Expert mode. 52 00:06:25,066 --> 00:06:30,599 Choose "Free" and "Smooth/Flatten" to smooth the major connector's design. 53 00:07:06,466 --> 00:07:10,232 Restart the Wizard to continue the design process. 54 00:07:12,566 --> 00:07:19,166 Starting with exocad version 2016, you can delete all connectors with a click in the "Connectors" dialog. 55 00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,200 Click "Next" to merge all meshes into a virtual waxup. 56 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:29,700 This operation may take a while. 57 00:07:33,833 --> 00:07:38,833 Then click "Next" to free-form the whole merged restoration. 58 00:07:41,033 --> 00:07:47,366 As usual, you can add and remove material, smooth parts or modify bigger areas. 59 00:07:55,566 --> 00:08:02,699 Furthermore, you can use the "Adapt" feature to create a uniform gap between restoration and gingiva. 60 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,466 Click "Next" to proceed to the next step. 61 00:08:24,833 --> 00:08:26,999 Switch off all screw holes. 62 00:08:29,233 --> 00:08:32,266 Click "Next" to finish the design. 63 00:08:47,700 --> 00:08:52,700 We created a wrap around implant suprastructure in not even 10 minutes. 64 00:09:02,133 --> 00:09:06,133 Thank you for watching this video.
