Modifying the height of the entire bar

This option is available for Free-form milled, Wrap-around and Hybrid bars.

Notes

The model alignment step must be completed.

The width must be modified before changing the height of the bar.

Make sure the Bar deformations icon green bar deformations tool is highlighted in green.

If available, the Lower handles and Top handles options from the Segments segments icon must be selected.

Click Unlock  unlock icon on the Front button.

In the Segments segments icon parameters, select all the segments and joints and select Move all handles.

Tip

If available, consider using the Two handles mode for top or the Two handles mode for bottom options. However, use these options only to finalize the design of the more complex areas. If you use these options at the beginning of the design, you will significantly increase design time.

Drag a top handle to the proper location.

Repeat with a lower handle, if necessary.

Tips

For Montreal, Paris and Montreal with metallic lingual bars, start with the handles located in the middle of the gingival surface of the bar.

If the bar must follow the surface of the ridge, use Fit to gum, and make sure the lingual and facial surfaces of the bar are not in the ridge.

If the bar must not touch the gingival surface, consider using the Distance to gum option in the Bar parameters bar parameters icon.
