How to get the Full Benefit of Natural Texture
Natural Texture helps achieve the closest possible shade and texture of the image.

How to get the Full Benefit of Texture Library
Texture Library allows you to import images of teeth restorations you collect for the program to extract their textures and make them available for you to use during Consultation Mode.

It is a common place for Medit users to freely share their restoration libraries, upload and download images and utilize images in Medit Smile Design.
⚠️ Medit takes no responsibility for the content shared in the Medit Community Texture Library. We encourage users to only share images which comply with local and international legislation.
3. Once the images are imported, you will see the available list on the left.

Including small parts of the gingiva in the extracted texture will make the template look more natural.
