Hi, everyone! I've got a problem. I've modeled a head, and a crappy set of teeth along with the inside of the mouth. Now I need a way to put teeth and the mouth inside the head. I know it sounds really, really stupid, but I just can't figure out how to do it. Especailly with the corner of the mouth. I've searched for tutorials, found a few head totorials w/o teeth, and a seperate teeth tutorial. But nowere can I find one that explains how to put the teeth inside the head. Pretty please help!!! Thanks in advance.

to start id just take the area you have between the lips and extrude it into the head. once you have done that then tweak it and pull it up etc like the inside of your mouth and simply insert the teeth If you have more trouble just post some screen grabs and ill help Trav

I'll try that. Another question: How do I work with/edit stuff that is inside the head without outside (cheeks, lips getting in the way? Is there a way to hide those? (I'm using 3DMax 5.1)
