The invention relates to the use of flowable, photopolymerizable composite resin compositions that comprise a nanoscale organic surface-modified filler for stereolithographically producing a shaped dental part and to a method for producing corresponding shaped dental parts. The method according to the invention is particularly simple, fast, reliable and cost-effective. It allows improved shaped dental parts to be produced, in particular improved bridges and crowns.

An anatomical dental implant arranged to be implanted in a naturally occurring cavity of the jawbone, the implant comprising at its apical side a root part arranged to anchor the implant in the cavity and at its occlusal side an abutment part arranged for supporting a dental prosthetic element, wherein the root part comprises an outer surface arranged to come into contact with the cavity walls, and wherein the root part comprises an outer section adjacent to the outer surface of the root part, wherein the outer section of the root part is arranged to deform plastically upon insertion of the root part into the cavity such that the root part substantially conforms to the shape and size of the cavity.

A tooth restoration method and a tooth restoration system are provided. The tooth restoration method includes: configuring a control module to obtain an image and tooth characteristic information of teeth through an image capturing module; configuring the control module to calculate and generate a characteristic parameter of the target tooth according to the image and the tooth characteristic information, and generate a 3D restoration file of the target tooth according to the characteristic parameter; configuring the control module to calculate and generate color information and candidate filling materials of the target tooth according to the image, the 3D restoration file and the filling material database, and compare the candidate filling materials with the characteristic parameter and the color information of the target tooth to generate a selected filling material matching the target tooth; and restoring the target tooth based on the selected filling material through a prosthetic technique.

Apparatuses, components, devices, methods, and systems for generating dentures are provided. An example system includes a motion capture system that captures patient jaw motion and generates patient jaw motion data; and a denture design system that generates a denture design based on the patient jaw motion data. An example method includes acquiring a digital reference denture model of a reference denture; selecting a denture tooth library based on the digital reference denture model; selecting and aligning denture library teeth from the selected denture tooth library to the digital reference denture model; generating a denture base digital model based on the digital reference denture model and the aligned denture library teeth; and fabricating a physical denture based from the denture base digital model.

The present inventive concept relates to a method of manufacturing dentures by using a jig, the method including: planting false teeth in a soft jig to expose roots of the false teeth to outside of the soft jig; inserting the soft jig into a hole provided in a hard jig; cutting exposed portions of the false teeth to a depth set by a controller of a milling machine; and inserting the cut false teeth into a false teeth groove of a gum structure.
