3D-diagrammodus gebruiken

Most users use the 2D Ondontagram, however, there is an option to see a 3d representation of the tooth chart.

The 3D model can be displayed without any treatment. The 3D chart includes the following features:

• Jaw mode

• Chart mode

• Ability to move and rotate the teeth and/or jaw

• Bone density

• Gum levels

• Pulp chambers

• Copy function.

Enabling the 3D Tooth Chart

The first time that the 3D Chart is activated, a wizard will appear to take you through the configuration. The wizard needs to be run only once on each workstation but it can be run from the Configure menu at any time to change settings if there are hardware changes. Note that the wizard may be available only to a user with administrative security rights. To enable the 3D Tooth Chart:

1. Click the 3D button

2. The 3D Chart Setup window will appear:

3. Click Next> to continue. EXACT will check your hardware and software to determine the available rendering modes and automatically default to the best option.

4. When the hardware / software check is completed, click Next> to continue.

5. To enable the 3D chart, check (tick) the Enable 3D Charting checkbox and click the Finish button to complete the Wizard.

6. Once the 3D Chart set-up wizard has been completed you are now able to use 3D Charting.

Chart and Jaw Modes in 3D

The 3D Tooth Chart has two modes:

1. 'Chart' mode, as displayed in this example:

2. 'Jaw' mode, as shown below:The chart shows all teeth that are charted as being present, along with completed treatment. Any planned treatment on the chart is shown in blue, as in this example:

The 3D Chart opens with the ‘Chart’ displayed by default. To switch to ‘Jaw’ mode, click on the ‘Jaw’ option under ‘View’ at the top right of the window

Graphical Movement in 3D Modes

Graphics in the 3D charts can be rotated in any direction when charting to provide a real-life view of the patient's dental structure.

The following 3D movement modes are available:

• Jaw movement in 3D Chart mode (rotate upper and/or lower jaw representations)

• Tooth movement in 3D Chart mode (move or rotate teeth representations)

• Jaw movement in 3D Jaw mode (rotate upper and/or lower jaw representations)

• Tooth movement in 3D Jaw mode (move or rotate teeth representations).

Movement in both the Chart and Jaw modes is accomplished via on-screen menus and options buttons, and by using the left and right mouse buttons, which have different functions as indicated in the instructions.

You can practice using the graphical movement controls as much as you like, then click the "Reset" button to restore the graphical display to its default mode.

Drawing on a Tooth

There are two common ways you can draw on a tooth:

• Choose a service with a graphic, such as a filling, then click the ‘Edit Drawing’ button to alter the standard filling shape.

• Select a service that is set to ‘Drawing’.

  NOTES: It is not critical if you select the tooth first then the service, or vice-versa.

  The service can be selected by double-clicking it, or by dragging it onto the Treatment Plan area of the Chart tab.

  It does not matter if the chart is in 2D or 3D mode, as the drawing window display is the same in each case.

To draw on a Tooth

1. From the patient’s Chart tab, select the required service from the Service List and drag it into the Treatment Plan area.

2. The following window will appear automatically if your service was set to Drawing:
