Triangularisation and socket modifications
July 9, 2026
Here, we're talking about "clinical" triangularisation: creating three support zones, or three "flats", on the cast, like with plaster but in 3D. The goal is to clearly define the support and guidance areas for a more stable, better-controlled shape.
When is it useful?
- To gain stability and guidance, for a more "locked-in" shape.
- To replicate your casting technique digitally, using your three support zones.
- When you need more clearly defined support areas rather than uniform contact.

In our step-by-step video, we walk you through how to start triangularisation in VYTRUVE, define your three support zones, then adjust the transitions to get a clean model for what comes next.
