Overview
In some cases, detailed information should be provided for careful design, for instance, crown design. However, the redundant data of scanning results will be trimmed based on the concern of storage space, leading to insufficient data for design. The software provides a function to save the data of specific areas without post-processing to meet the needs of the design. This guide presents the utilization and effects of the function, refined scan.
How to refine an area?
STEP 1: Activate the refined scan
In the Settings > Scan Settings > General, the refined scan is activated by default, enabling the function to activate automatically after scanning of single jaws.
If the function is disabled, users can still enter the process manually.
STEP 2: Create an order

For specific dentistry types, for instance, restoration, the refined area function will be conducted automatically.
