Caution
Manual alignment is a process which should be executed with the utmost accuracy. Double-check the accuracy of the corresponding points, and the position of the dental scan coinciding with the patient model.
If the dental scan and patient model are not correctly aligned after SmartFusion™ Initialization, manual alignment may be performed. You will be guided through the alignment process by a range of pop-up messages and warnings.
