A holding surface is formed by an inclined surface formed from the upper edge of a flange of a disk-shaped processing block to a workpiece portion. The processing block is accommodated in an annular holding member, a pressing-side holding member is advanced with respect to an accommodating side holding member, and the facing peripheral edge of the pressing side holding member is brought into contact with the holding surface. Since the facing peripheral edge abuts on a circle centered around the axis of the holding surface formed by a conical side surface, the axis of the annular holding member and the axis of the processing block coincide with each other in a processing apparatus, and the processing block is set at a predetermined position

A tooth arrangement decal constructed and arranged to facilitate the rapid communication of the placement of prostheses with respect to prosthetic teeth on a wax rim and a method of using the same is provided. The tooth arrangement decal may instruct the arrangement of teeth, and in particular, central incisors, lateral incisors, and canines. The tooth arrangement decal may be constructed and arranged to eliminate the need for tedious measurements and inscription of markings on a wax ring to indicate the appropriate location for prostheses during denture set-up.

Prosthetic tooth support (1) with at least one prosthetic tooth (2), in particular with several prosthetic teeth (2), wherein a crown area (3) of the prosthetic tooth (2) or of the prosthetic teeth (2) is embedded, preferably cast, at least partially, preferably completely, in a support layer (4).

A system includes a plurality of assemblies each configured to support a dental mold and a material, a heating system configured to heat the material, a forming system configured to form a chamber encompassing the dental mold and at least a portion of the heated material, and to cause the heated material to form over the dental mold, and a conveyor system configured to move the plurality of assemblies from a loading area to the heating system, from the heating system to the forming system, and from the forming system to an unloading area.

A light curing dental system comprising a light emitting tray that precisely distributes an optimal amount of curing light energy to internal, external and extra oral portions of the dental arch to cure a dental material. The light curing dental system generally includes a light source, a light emitting dental tray, an activation module and a photocurable dental material.

A device for making, duplicating and fixing dental models in articulator, using dental replicas (19) of plaster or other material with bases (20) for the manufacture of dental models (18). The device incorporates at least three pins (3) that have elements to be embedded in the bases (20) in charge of said pins (3) for positioning and fixing the dental models (18) to platens (7) that have a minimum of three protruding protrusions (8) on its surface and arranged to fit with the pins (3) and, where appropriate, provide a releasable connection with the pins (3). The platens (7) are attached to the articulator (1) with a height or ratio (h) between protrusions (8) of the platens (7), upper and lower, preset and reproducible.

The invention relates to an additive method for producing a dental working model for an articulator, comprising the steps: additively producing a base plate for attachment to the articulator, and additively producing a dental model, wherein the base plate and the dental model are configured to be fixed to one another in a positionally secure manner. Another object of the invention is an additively produced dental working model for an articulator, comprising an additively produced base plate configured for attachment to the articulator, and an additively produced dental model, wherein the base plate and the dental model are configured to be fixed to one another in a positionally secure manner.
