looking for a cheap second hand scanner for dentistry

Post by asante »

Hey guys,

i'm currently looking for scanner that can scan either plaster models in very good detail. I also need a scanner that comes with software that recognises 2 objects seperatley that are interlocking/touching/sitting ontop of each other. The reason for this is that for my work i need to have the 2 models (the manidible and maxilla) in occlusion or sitting on top of each other, replicating the resting bite of the patient. once i upload the scans onto the 3d modelling software, i would need the software to recognise both scans as seperate yet being present and interlocking at the same time. is there a name for this ability? i would think is called something like articulation software. if theres an actual name id love to know. is there a way to get a non-dental scanner to do this? would it be possible to get a scanner under say £4000 that can do thge job?

I know i may not have explained this well enough so please feel free to ask me to clarrify/ explain in more depth.

Any info wopuld greatly appreciated.

when the stl is uploaded they uploaded in occlusion but are still seperate allowing you to hide and unhide each model whilst still maintaining occlusion
