Each block is one slide and the point it makes. Under it are the animated clips that can prove that point. Play them, tick the one you want (or "none, use the drawn animation"), add a note if you like, then press the button at the bottom and send the text back.
All clips are existing manufacturer or medical-animation videos, checked one by one. No real patients, no AI-generated video.
Point: scan directly with a hand-held scanner. Faster, more comfortable, accuracy comparable to PVS impressions. Suitable for single-tooth restorations and short-span FDPs.
Point: the scanner stitches many small images; each join carries a small error; over a full arch the errors add up to distortion. (A drawn animation of the drift itself is on the slide as well.)
Point A: moisture changes how light reflects, keep the field dry. Point B: reflective restorations scan poorly; a thin uniform layer of scanning powder reduces reflection.
Point: the scanning sequence changes accuracy; follow the manufacturer's pattern.
Points: standardised tooth preparation with a clear finish line; optical capture with interocclusal registration; CNC milling of the block; same-day placement. One clip per step.
Point: the software proposes an initial design from the selected tooth shape, the adjacent teeth, the opposing teeth and the surroundings.
Point: software reproduces the interarch relationship and simulates jaw movements. Type 1, completely adjustable: records the real mandibular paths with an electronic jaw registration system. Type 2, mathematically simulated: calculates movements from entered values (Bennett angle, condylar inclination, VDO, incisal table).
Point: dynamic virtual articulation is evaluated during simulated movement; deviations under 100 μm versus the mechanical articulator (Hsu et al. 2019).
