# Overview
::::VerticalSplit{layout="right"}
:::VerticalSplitItem
**Vita Vionic Dent Resin **enables economically printed dental arches and elements that have a high abrasion resistance and remarkable stability, and also meet modern, esthetic demands.
**Esthetic **
Available in nine natural-looking, durable shades with a perfect match to the VITA shade guide, reliably meeting the high standards, thanks to the great polishing characteristics.
**Durable**
The low wear values underscore the quality of the stable and abrasion-resistant restorations.
**Versatile**
Suitable for permanent denture teeth, as well as temporary crown and bridge restorations, making it highly versatile for use in removable partial and full dentures.

## Full Arches
### Orientation
:::hint{type="info"}
For detailed information about orienting parts, read [Orient](docId\:rMnxtq1NIAHXZOc4bZXWu).
:::
- Rotate full arches to **45 degrees from the platform** with the **posterior at the platform.**
- **Intaglio surfaces should face the platform.**

### Supporting
:::hint{type="info"}
See [Supports](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p) for detailed information.
:::
::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Select the [Supports](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p) tab in the top bar or press **Shift + S.**
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
In the bottom bar, toggle [Overhang Detection](docId:1bT3mas8msvxq9CDza67C) **on** and set the angle to **40 degrees.**
::Image[]{src="https://res.cloudinary.com/carbon3d/image/upload/t_auto_quality_format/v1741914659/Education/Materials/dental/__General_Use/overhang-detection02.gif" size="70" width="712" height="278" position="flex-start" alt="Overhang Detection" showCaption="false"}
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Also in the bottom bar, set [Toggle Platform](docId:1bT3mas8msvxq9CDza67C) to **off.**
::Image[]{src="https://res.cloudinary.com/carbon3d/image/upload/v1741970064/Education/Materials/dental/__General_Use/toggle-platform02.gif" size="70" width="722" height="347" position="flex-start" alt="Toggle Platform" showCaption="false"}
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Set **Part Postion** to **Above.**

:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Support **basal surfaces **with [patches.](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p)
- Set **Primary Support Fill Type** to **Boundary Fence Only.**
- Avoid adding supports to **intaglio surfaces.**
- In some cases, bar supports may be added in addition to fence supports.
:::
::::
## Bridges
### Orientation
:::hint{type="info"}
For detailed information about orienting parts, read [Orient](docId\:rMnxtq1NIAHXZOc4bZXWu).
:::
- Rotate bridges so that **intaglio surfaces are facing away from the platform.**
- This should eliminate overhangs (and the corresponding need for supports) on the intaglio surfaces.
- **Top surface of the bridge should be approximately parallel with the platform.**
### Supporting
:::hint{type="info"}
See [Supports](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p) for detailed information.
:::
::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Select the [Supports](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p) tab in the top bar or press **Shift + S.**
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
In the bottom bar, toggle [Overhang Detection](docId:1bT3mas8msvxq9CDza67C) **on** and set the angle to **40 degrees.**
::Image[]{src="https://res.cloudinary.com/carbon3d/image/upload/t_auto_quality_format/v1741914659/Education/Materials/dental/__General_Use/overhang-detection02.gif" size="70" width="712" height="278" position="flex-start" alt="Overhang Detection" showCaption="false"}
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Also in the bottom bar, set [Toggle Platform](docId:1bT3mas8msvxq9CDza67C) to **off.**
::Image[]{src="https://res.cloudinary.com/carbon3d/image/upload/v1741970064/Education/Materials/dental/__General_Use/toggle-platform02.gif" size="70" width="722" height="347" position="flex-start" alt="Toggle Platform" showCaption="false"}
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Set **Part Postion** to **Above.**
::Image[]{src="https://res.cloudinary.com/carbon3d/image/upload/t_auto_quality_format/v1743201611/Education/Materials/dental/__General_Use/part-position-above.jpg" size="70" width="733" height="146" position="flex-start" alt="Part Position" showCaption="false"}
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Support overhangs with [fences](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p) or [patches.](docId\:VUbpoAitbLM11aM9-qJ1p)
- For larger areas, use patches with **Primary Support Fill Type** set to **Boundary Fence Only.**
- For linear overhangs, use fences.
- Avoid adding supports to **intaglio surfaces.**
:::
::::
## Nesting
::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Select the **Layout tab (Shift + L)** in the top menu bar.
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Under **Auto Layout,** select **Gen2.**
Gen2 usually gives the most efficient packing for dental devices.
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Enter at least **1 mm** in **Padding.**
Models require a minimum of 1 mm of space between them.
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Leave **Optimize starting rotation** unchecked.
This leaves your parts in their previous orientations.
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Leave **Allowed rotations** at the default setting.
This gives the software maximum flexibility to fit the most possible parts on the build platform.
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Press the **Auto Layout** button to arrange your parts.
:::
::::
If necessary, nesting can be changed manually:
- Click and drag parts to adjust their position.
- Modify Z rotation by using the **Spin **tool or manual rotations under the **Orient tab** **(Shift + O).**
- Use the [Part List tab](docId:1bT3mas8msvxq9CDza67C)** **as needed to more easily select models and focus on them.
## Print Controls
Click **Print Controls** or **Shift + P** in the top menu bar.
### Slicing
::::VerticalSplit{layout="middle"}
:::VerticalSplitItem
Set Slice Thickness to **Standard (100 µm).**
:::
:::VerticalSplitItem
:::
::::
:::hint{type="warning"}
Reducing the slice thickness by choosing the Fine (50 µm) or Super-fine (25 µm) settings will increase print time and may reduce part quality and accuracy.
:::
## Project Analysis
::::WorkflowBlock
:::WorkflowBlockItem
On the top menu bar, select the **Project Analysis tab** (Shift + A).
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
Press **Start Analysis.**
:::
:::WorkflowBlockItem
After a short time, the result of the project analysis will be displayed. Note the **print time** and the **required resin volume.**
