3.1.21
2022-04-27
1. Over 40 new short presentation templates. These are ready-to-use presentations that make it easy to find and talk about specific topics.
2. Presentation templates have been grouped in to five Presentation Sets:
Dawson Starter – Three presentations designed for someone starting to use occlusion principles in their practice.
Staff Training – Five presentations suitable for helping your staff understand the principles of occlusion.
Hygienist – 12 short presentations that equip your hygienist to introduce patients to issues observed during routine exams.
Detailed Presentations – Four longer presentations for explaining topics in depth.
Issues and Treatments – 36 all-new, short, topic-focused presentations.
3. Downloading the full BiteFX content and monthly updates greatly speeded up, and the amount of storage used greatly decreased (both by about a factor of 10) by using a new video format.
4. Uninstall updates function made more reliable. (Mostly for our testing purposes.)
5. All update animations issued for the previous release (3.0.25) have been rolled into this version.
Includes:
Repositioning Teeth (orthodontic work)
Repositioning Bone (maxillofacial surgery)
Piper Clock Animations (illustrating Dr. Mark Piper’s clock positions of displaced TMJ discs)
Updated and New Recession and Gingiva Animations
Periodontitis
Food Impaction
Improved Implant Animation
Tongue Tie
Frenectomy
AM (morning) Aligner
6. Fifteen animations enhanced with gums and better retrodiscal tissue behavior
3.0.25
2021-02-24
Menu button enabled when selection panels displayed.
This makes it easier to follow the info panel instructions on how to sign-up for the autorenewable subscription.
3.0.22
2020-12-21
Biggest change is moving to monthly autorenewable subscriptions which make continuity of service much easier for everyone.
We've made some enhancements to details to improve usability:
1. “Duplicate presentation” function added to user-defined presentations so, having created a presentation for one patient, you can quickly duplicate it and customize it for another patient.
2. Ability to choose different sized thumbnails for the animations and pictures, so you can select the size that works best for your iPad and eyesight.
3. Loop button is set to “on” when BiteFX first starts as most people want animations to loop when they tap the Play button.
4. Play speed is stored on a per-animation basis so, having determined just the right speed you like to use for an animation, that will be the speed the next time you use that animation.
5. Lock states for inserting and deleting pictures made consistent. The following functions (previously disabled when the padlock was unlocked) will now be enabled when unlocked:
• Adding pictures
• Adding picture albums
• Deleting pictures
• Deleting picture albums
• Hiding picture albums
6. When an action is attempted that can’t be done because the lock-state is “unlocked”, the padlock flashing will be much more obvious (displays a magnified version of the padlock icon pointing towards the padlock button).

This release mainly deals with challenges encountered with downloading larger animation updates and in maintaining compatibility with the latest releases of iOS.
Most of the work is “under the covers” but features you may notice:
1. Downloading updates is much more resilient, being able to skip files that don’t download successfully and offering the ability to try downloading them later. The menu now contains a “Skipped Animations” item that is enabled when animations have been skipped in the download process.
2. The frame counter supports animations with greater than 1,000 frames.
