Hello Dr. Yoder,
Great video with great details. What program or website are you using to create the text?

[@ComputerScienceofDentistry]

Thanks for watching! At 8:08 I go into what other free software I used to generate the MeshMixer Stencils. You could use anything, but I like a program called "paint dot net". You can download it for free here: www.getpaint.net/

Dear Doctor! Could you tell me the step to engrave the text in the model instead ?
Thanks

Hello Dr.! Nice video, thanks for sharing. The stencil text is not working for me after downloading paint and importing the patients name, I keep getting triangle shapes on my 3d stl models. How did you make the model empty from the top? Thanks in advace and keep up the good work!

[@ComputerScienceofDentistry]

Make sure the settings that you have for the stencil tool are identical to mine. Also, you might need to refine your mesh a bit more. I go over that in the next video regarding high resolution pictures/text.
