[Object] To provide a method of producing a plate denture using a stereolithography 3D printer, which is capable of producing a plate denture in a short time with a more simplified production process, the plate denture exhibiting excellent occlusion. [Solving Means] The problem is solved by a method of producing a plate denture, including: adhering an artificial tooth and a denture base photochemically solidified by a stereolithography 3D printer to each other by polymerizing an unpolymerized curable composition for stereolithography present on a surface of the denture base. Further, stronger adhesion between the artificial tooth and the denture base is achieved by mixing, in the curable composition for stereolithography, a polymerization initiator other than a photopolymerization initiator for stereolithography.

A method of making a denture comprised of fabricating a mold form, including a mold surface corresponding to an external surface of the denture; casting a liquid mold block material against the mold surface of the mold form, and curing the liquid mold block material to form a solid mold block including a second mold surface corresponding to the external surface of the denture. Denture teeth are placed in the tooth sockets of the mold block. Denture base material is delivered against the denture base surface portion of the second mold surface and bases of the denture teeth. The liquid denture base material is cured into a solid state to form a denture base block including embedded denture teeth. The denture base block is placed in a milling fixture; and milled to form the internal surface of the denture.

The present invention to a method of denture manufacture that incorporates CAM-formed occlusal portions made of zirconia, resulting in a natural fit, feel, and wear essentially similar to the wear properties of natural teeth.

A plate (30 or 40) used for installing a prefabricated prosthesis (62) on to free-hand installed implants (52) includes a plastic structure (30 or 40) shaped and configured to mate with an arch (10), a plurality of perforations in the plastic structure, and a plurality of removable panels (32 or 42) corresponding to the plurality of perforations. The plurality of removable panels are designed and configured for removal in locations corresponding to locations of the free-hand installed implants and further configured to deliver the prosthesis on to the implants using the plastic plate.

A method for producing a dental prosthesis, the method including the following steps: affixing several prefabricated prosthetic teeth in a support; producing a prosthetic base according to a virtual model with a CAM method to create tooth sockets that lie parallel to each other; processing the prosthetic teeth basally and adjacent cervically while held in the support in accordance with the virtual model using a CAM method, so that the roots of the prosthetic teeth produced lie parallel to each other when the prosthetic teeth are inserted into the prosthetic base; and, inserting the processed prosthetic teeth together or in groups into the tooth sockets of the prosthetic base and attaching the processed prosthetic teeth in the tooth sockets. Also provided are a dental prosthesis produced by the method and a device for implementing the method.

The invention relates to additively manufactured dental devices comprised of a denture base and at least one removable bracing body joined at specific locations to the denture base. The invention also relates to methods of using these additively manufactured dental devices in the fabrication of dental prostheses.

A method including modifying a known upper denture to form a final upper denture by a series of steps which may include making holes in a gums section made of a first material of the known upper denture, cutting away a palate section, and applying a gold and silicon mixture to make a new palate section, to insert into the holes in the gums section, and to cover the first material. The method may also include modifying a known lower denture to form a final lower denture by a series of steps which may include making holes in a gums section made of a first material of the known lower denture, and applying a gold and silicon mixture to insert into the holes, and to cover the first material. The first material may be nylon.

The invention relates to a denture, made of teeth, in particular prefabricated teeth, and of a denture base made of a gingival material, comprising cavities for teeth in which cavities for the teeth are mounted, in particular attached by bonding, characterized in that the denture base (12) is produced by a CAD/CAM process forming the cavities (20) for the teeth (14), and in that cervical areas (40a) of the teeth (14) extending through the basal surface (16, 18) of the denture base (12) are removed, in particular abraded or milled.
