This will make it easier to see overhangs and place supports. ![](https://res.cloudinary.com/carbon3d/image/upload/v1741970064/Education/Materials/dental/__General_Use/toggle-platform02.gif) ## Occlusal Surfaces Towards Platform - Digital models should be oriented with the **occlusal surfaces facing the platform. ** - **Does not apply to try-ins or full-arch denture teeth.** - Necessary to maintain accuracy. - Ensures supports are on the occlusal surfaces enabling greater accuracy for mating surfaces. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/3CesIL2dYMCHPZvRjp8S0/RHKPBY89K0yL0crEAOndz_image.png" size="70" width="1680" height="1085" position="flex-start" showCaption="false"} - **Monolithic/try-in geometries **can be oriented **60 degrees** to **90 degrees**, where 90° is fully vertical with the anterior teeth facing the platform. ::Image[]{src="https://api.archbee.com/api/optimize/3CesIL2dYMCHPZvRjp8S0/tfPuZwSTQBVipHDM7trgJ_image.png" size="70" width="1680" height="1080" position="flex-start" showCaption="false"} ## No Overhangs on Interface Orient parts so that **interfaces and margins are free from overhangs** and therefore do not require supports.
