What's new document for the full details.
AI Bite Alignment: Automatically aligns upper and lower jaw scans—even when bite scans are missing or inaccurate—using a trained AI model. This saves time and ensures reliable occlusion setup, with visual previews and manual fine-tuning available.
Messaging System to Reduce Interruptions: Replaces blocking error dialogs with subtle, non-intrusive notifications that appear in the corner of the workspace. This allows technicians to stay focused on design tasks and resolve issues only when necessary, significantly reducing workflow interruptions.
AI Margin Lines in Copy Denture: The system now automatically detects and draws margin lines based on tooth anatomy in copy denture workflows. This reduces manual adjustments and speeds up the design process, while still allowing for manual refinements.

Improved Post & Core Workflow: Undo/Redo functionality has been added to the Post & Core design step, allowing users to reverse specific actions without restarting the entire design. This boosts confidence and productivity by enabling flexible experimentation.
Cancel Long-Running Operations: Users can now cancel ongoing calculations mid-process, such as feature builds or transitions between design steps. This prevents delays and allows for quick corrections, improving responsiveness and control during design.
Faster Thickness Map Calculation: Thickness maps now update in real time during sculpting, thanks to GPU acceleration. This provides immediate feedback, smoother workflows, and better visualization for fixed restorations.
Resolved Issues
Infrastructure and case management
- Redesign Order Opening Issue Resolved: Resolved an issue when it was not possible to open orderfor redesign after changes were made in Order form
- Invalid 3Shape Communicate Orders Cleanup: Fixed issues with cleaning up invalid 3Shape Communicate orders in the Control Panel to ensureconsistent and error-free removal

- Cloud Licenses Information Page: A new information page for Cloud Licenses has been added to Dental Manager, allowing users to view license status
Fixed restorations
- FDA Validation Error: Fixed an issue where modifying an already designed order caused validation errors. Now, you can modify cases after designing them without any problems.
- Closing Dental Designer: Resolved an error that occurred when closing Dental Designer after adjusting the incisal pin setting in the Virtual Articulator.
- Microsoft MSXML Error: Fixed the “Microsoft MSXML not installed” error in Dental Designer 2024, ensuring the workflow can be completed without issues.
- Smile Composer: Addressed a problem with failing minimum thickness calculations when trying to open Smile Composer.
- Margin Line Generation: Corrected the generation of margin lines for cases with the die scanned in the model.
- Custom Screenshots: Fixed an error that occurred when saving custom screenshots.
- Virtual Articulator: Resolved an issue where the “Adapt design” feature in the Virtual Articulator was not always activated.
- Trimming Feature: Stabilized the trimming feature to prevent boundary errors when entering the step.
- Implant Bridge Exit Profiles: Improved the reliability of the implant bridge exit profiles step to prevent errors and ensure consistent performance.
- Access Violation Error: Fixed a rare access violation error that occurred when starting the design.
- AI Annotation Points: Improved the consistency of AI-placed annotation points, reducing the need for manual adjustments.
- Distance Map: Fixed an issue where the distance map was not updating correctly or remained visible after being turned off.
- Scan Artifacts: Resolved a performance issue with the “remove scan artifacts” functionality.
- Save Step: Fixed an access violation error that occurred during the save step for some implant bridge cases.
- Bridge Connection: Improved the connection of the bridge when connectors have self-intersections.
- TRIOS HD Photos: Ensured that TRIOS HD photos from the TRIOS 5 scanner are displayed and transformed correctly.
- Cut Bar to Gingiva: Improved the functionality of the “cut bar to gingiva” feature
Removables design
- Library Type Change: You can now change the library type when a denture is ordered for only the lower jaw.
- Smile Selector: Smile Selector now supports changing the full arch library when only posterior teeth are ordered in a partial denture.
- Error Fix: Fixed an issue where some cases showed the error “Cannot project spline on surface” when opening for re-design.
