First activation of the license


Before starting check:


  • to have an Internet connection;
  • to have added to the exceptions list of your firewall and antivirus the executable software Dental.Studio.exe and Dental.Studio.Order.Management.exe.


At the first run the software will show a window like this:


Maestro3d.dental.studio.V5.license.jpg


  • Product Key write the assigned and unique product code for your license;
  • Mail write your email to receive confirmation of activation;
  • Workstation name write the name you prefer for the workstation.


Press Next to activate the license.


Important notes on the license

The activation procedure, described above, activates the license on the workstation.

It is necessary to repeat the activation procedure each time the workstation is modified or changed. For this reason it is recommended to keep the product code.

The maximum number of workstations that can be activated is 3. However, the license cannot work simultaneously in more than one workstation.

The license, after the first activation, can work offline. The workstation may therefore not be connected to the Internet.

Only for the first activation it is necessary to use an Internet connection.

However, we recommend using the software on a workstation connected to the Internet to check for software updates.


Order Management


The Order Management application allows you to manage work cases.

  • database management of clinics, doctors and patients and cases associated with patients;
  • creating a new work case, importing files from disk or directly interfacing with the Maestro 3D scanner;
  • opening of existing work cases.
