Q&A

If I selected a tooth in DentalDB but later in DentalCAD I want to change it, how do I do that?
In DentalCAD, switch to Expert mode and use the Choose Library Tooth function to adjust your tooth selection. In the tooth diagram, click the tooth you want to change and select the new one. For example, replacing a premolar with a molar.
