In one aspect, a mounting device adapted to be temporarily connectable ex-vivo to an unfinished dental prosthesis body in the course of dental prosthesis processing includes a lower base part and an upper connecting part, wherein the connecting part is adapted to be connectable to the void volume of the dental prosthesis body. At least the connecting part comprises a porous material at least comprising a porous content of larger or equal to 15 volume-% and smaller or equal to 75 volume-% and a thermal conductivity at 800° C. of larger or equal to 0.05 W/mK and smaller or equal to 0.75 W/mK.

Disclosed herein are methods and systems for automatically spraying a glaze solution onto a dental prosthesis. The automated spray glazing system includes: a first spray gun; a controller, and a gripper configured to hold the dental prosthesis and to rotate the dental prosthesis about an axis. The controller is configured to rotate the gripper and spray a glaze solution from the first spray gun using a glazing profile based at least in part on a type of the dental prosthesis. The glazing profile is selected such that a cross-sectional thickness of a resulting-glazed material of the dental prosthesis has an average thickness range between 15 to 63 μm and a standard deviation of less than 6 μm when measured at locations in an upper half of the dental prosthesis.

Provided is a joining structure for processing which joins reliably and without misalignment a dental CAD/CAM block to be machined to a block holder for holding same onto a processing device. An engagement protrusion is formed on a block-side joint surface of a block to be processed, and an engagement recess is formed on a holder-side joint surface of a block holder. An adhesive retaining space is formed therebetween. An adhesive is applied thereto, and the engagement protrusion and the engagement recess are engaged and joined. The engagement protrusion formed on the block to be processed is rectangular or substantially rectangular. If the engagement protrusion extends from the front surface towards the back surface of the block to be processed, the protrusion can removed from a mold (shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B) by moving the protrusion in the direction of the arrow (shown in FIGS. 5A and 5B).

In order to improve the reliability of a dental restoration, the present invention provides a method of implanting the dental restoration. The method includes a first operation in which a three-dimensional planning image is generated in which a scanning image overlaps and matches to a computed tomography (CT) image, a plurality of pieces of implantation information of implants are set along a dental arch in the three-dimensional planning image, and an implanting guide device is designed and manufactured, a second operation in which an alveolar bone is flattened by being guided by the implanting guide device, the implants are implanted, and a holder device including a holder abutment and a fixing bar is fixed to an upper side of the implant, a third operation in which a temporary denture is corrected to be occluded between upper and lower jaws to form a temporary mounting portion in which the holder device is inserted into an inner surface portion thereof, a fourth operation in which a corrected scanning image corrected to expose three-dimensional exterior information of the temporary mounting portion to the outside is obtained from a scanning image of the temporary denture, and the three-dimensional exterior information of the temporary mounting portion is replaced and swapped with a virtual holder device, and a fifth operation in which a mount part is formed in an inner surface portion on the basis of the virtual holder device, and an artificial tooth part is fixed to an artificial gum part to which a clip engaged with the fixing bar is fixed so as to manufacture a final dental restoration.
