In this article, we will go over the workflow for utilizing dentist-dependent CAD settings when sending to 3Shape Automate
Dentist-dependent CAD settings can be utilized to allow Dr profiles to determine what each case's Contact & Occlusion values will be when sent to Automate, instead of changing the values on the Automate website on a case-by-case basis.
This value will override any value set on the Automate site when the specific DR is chosen in the order creation phase in 3Shape Dental Manager
Step 1: Open the Control Panel, click on 3rd party applications under Dental Manager, click on 3Shape Automate, and uncheck the Remove patient information box.
Step 2:Set up the dentist-dependent CAD settings for the Drs.
While in the control panel, click on Dentist under site settings, click +Add under the table and label each Dr's name, click +Add under the Dentist dependent CAD settings section, fill in the values Cut distance to antagonist (Occlusion value) & Cut distance to neighbor (Contact value)
If you want to set up single vs. dual contact settings, you will want to set up 2 CAD setting profiles under the DR. (see below). You must dedicate 2 different materials to the different parameter settings.
Important: When creating your order, you MUST select the Dr Name and the corresponding material tied to the specific parameter you want honored.
Close & Save the Control Panel
Step 3: Create an order. The order must be created with the DR profile selected under Customer Information.
Step 4: Send the order to 3Shape Automate & review the case
