Scan the Patient Complete Denture out of the patient’s mouth (only teeth & labial surfaces needed)
Place the Patient’s denture back in the mouth.
Scan the patient bite with with the opposing dentures in a normal fashion.
* Bite Registration is the RESPONSIBILITY of the Treating Dentist
* Surgical Guide Studio Builds the case according to the bite and VDO registered by the treating dentis

Scan the patient with Bite in ✅ OPEN position using the CBCT Scanner Bite Fork
For a better image, place cotton rolls between the patient’s teeth and cheeks.
Export Dicomm Files (.dcm) into a separate folder, zip it and upload it.
