The invention relates to a machine tool, in particular a milling machine for dental purposes, with a workpiece magazine for receiving workpieces, optionally with the aid of a housing. The workpiece magazine (22) is also moveably mounted with respect to the machine tool (10) and has a fitting position (30) for fitting a new workpiece (18) in the magazine (22). The machine tool also has a housing (40), in particular a partial housing, for each workpiece (18), the housing at least partially receiving the workpiece (18), and/or has a lifting platform (32), which is arranged adjacent to the fitting position (30) and on which the housing (40) together with the workpiece (18) can be received and displaced. The invention also relates to a system comprising a machine tool and a workpiece.

A blank holder and a blank are provided, the blank holder having a receiving area for a substantially disc-shaped blank, the receiving area being curved. The receiving area forms a straight, circular or part-circular or arc-shaped form-fitting profile. The blank has a matching guide shell which can be inserted or turned into the form-fitting profile.

A workpiece machining device includes a positional deviation correction unit configured to correct a positional deviation of a radius end mill by detecting a positional deviation between a real contour line and an ideal contour line of the radius end mill. The positional deviation correction unit calculates a first correction value configured to make a center of a first arc section formed into an arc shape at a corner portion of the ideal contour line and a center of a second arc section formed into an arc shape at a corner portion of the real contour line to be identical to each other in a plane perpendicular to the rotational axis, and corrects a machining point by the radius end mill using the first correction value.

Disclosed herein is method for designing a dental prosthesis and a positioning guide for placing the dental prosthesis on implants in the jaw while maintain proper occlusion. In particular the method relates to a method for designing the dental prosthesis and the positioning guide prior to implant placement. Accordingly, the disclosure relates to a method and a kit of components suited for one-day implant surgery thereby reducing the time the patient spend in the dentist chair.
