In this article, we will go over the steps to adjust the values on the Control Panel for Cement Gap and Extra Gap for Automate cases.
The Cement gap is around the margin line.
The extra cement gap is along the occlusal surface (top of the tooth). They both work together to provide a passive fit.
The cement gap and extra cement gap are found in the material settings within 3Shape and will carry over with your order.
1. Open the 3Shape control panel.
2. If you need settings for a crown, click on "Crowns" under Anatomy Elements. For coping, click on "Copings" under Frame Elements.
3. You will see the materials on the left and all the settings tied to those materials on the right.
4. Modify the information and save changes.
5. Send the cases to Automate with the new settings.
