A partial dental arch is provided with dentin material and with cutting material and a boundary area therebetween. It includes a primary-position tooth region and additional tooth regions which are arranged more distally. A wavy structure of the boundary area is provided whose amplitude—when viewed in the distal direction—decreases in at least one section of the mesial-distal and/or occlusal-gingival extension, in particular with regard to the occlusal-gingival direction.

Methods of fabricating a 3D device using ablation
11642202 · 2023-05-09 · ·

A three-dimensional device is fabricated in a layer-by-layer approach using a support material. The support material is deposited in a liquid form on a surface, hardened by cooling or ultraviolet (UV) curing, and selectively ablated to create an area within which the desired structure of the device will be formed. Active material is deposited into this area, and the layer-by-layer process repeated until the three-dimensional device has been completed. Thereafter, any remaining support material is removed by water or other solvent.
