A manufacturing method for a prosthetic apparatus for dental purpose according to one aspect of the present invention includes: acquiring scan data of a model that is a reproduction of at least a part of an inside of an oral cavity of a patient; creating shape data of a shaped body for dental purpose on a basis of the scan data; producing a shaped body on a basis of the shape data; covering at least a part of the shaped body and at least a part of a model with film, the shaped body attached to the model; releasing air in a part covered with the film to deform the film and bring the shaped body into close contact with the model; and curing the shaped body in a state where the shaped body is in close contact with the model.

A method of producing a dental prosthesis produced from a gum part, and prosthetic teeth arranged on the gum part and connected to the gum part. The surface of the dental prosthesis is surface-treated, the surface treatment of the dental prosthesis involving a solvent, and the solvent containing at least one chlorohydrocarbon and at least one methane nitroderivative.

A dental prosthesis is provided, manufactured from a monobloc or multibloc prosthesis blank (10), which is composed of a gum-colored material (14) and a tooth-colored material (12), which materials (12, 14) are bonded to each other by bonding, polymerization and/or one-piece manufacture. The boundary surface (16) between the materials is wave-shaped comprising alternating grooves (22) and ribs (24) in the course of the dental arch, and radial in an oral-vestibular direction in the region of the anterior teeth (33) to be created. The boundary surface (16), at least in the region of the molars (26)—again as viewed in the oral vestibular direction—has parallel grooves (22) and ribs (24) forming troughs and crests of the waveform, or grooves (22) and ribs (24) such that they extend in deviation from parallel by at most 10 degrees, in particular at most 5 degrees, at least in the region of the molars (26).

A system can be configured to record a position and orientation of a dental component. The system can include a coping and a replica. The coping can include an anti/rotational feature that is configured to mate with an anti-rotational feature of a dental component. The coping can also include an orientation feature that is configured to convey the orientation of the dental component. The replica can include a first anti-rotational feature that corresponds to the anti-rotational feature of the dental component. The replica can also include a second anti-rotational feature that does not correspond to the anti-rotational feature of the dental component.

The invention relates to method for manufacturing a dental prosthetic assembly. The dental prosthetic assembly comprises a first and a second element. The first element comprises a first connection portion with a reception configured to establish a mechanical connection between the first and the second element by receiving a protrusion of a second connection portion comprised by the second element.

The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for adjusting a position of artificial teeth of a denture. A digital 3D model of the denture comprising at least a denture part is provided. The denture part is configured for a jaw of a patient and comprises a dental arch with a plurality of artificial teeth arranged in an artificial gingiva. A deformable gingiva section of the artificial gingiva is defined between the teeth of the plurality of artificial teeth and a fixed gingiva section of the artificial gingiva with a fixed geometrical form. The dental arch is moved as a whole relative to the fixed gingiva section in order to adjust the position of the dental arch. A geometrical form of the deformable gingiva section is deformed due to the moving of the dental arch, whereas the fixed gingiva section maintains the fixed geometrical form.

Dental devices and systems and methods for making the same are provided. In at least one embodiment, a computer readable medium containing instructions for fabricating an arch-shaped device for coupling to a patient's mouth is provided. The instructions can include using a denture form device to obtain an impression of a patient's mouth. The instructions can also include selecting an arch device and adapting that arch device to conform to a model of a patient's mouth, such that the adapted arch device may be used to ultimately form a denture.

The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for providing a template for a casting matrix configured for casting one or more artificial gingiva parts of a removable denture. The casting matrix comprises one or more recesses. Each of the recesses has a 3D geometric form, which is a negative of a 3D geometric form of a section of the removable denture with one of the artificial gingiva parts to be casted.
