Abstract:
1. A method for the production of a dental prosthesis to be fastened to at least one tooth stump, comprising the steps of: producing an impression of the region of the jaw-bone comprising the tooth stump, forming a master model of the region of the jaw-bone on the basis of the impression, forming a positive model corresponding to the dental prosthesis to be produced, digitizing the positive model, inputting offset values to form a gap between the dental prosthesis to be produced and the tooth stump, calculating a program on the basis of the digitized values of the positive model and the offset values for processing a material of a blank by a machine tool for producing the dental prosthesis, wherein the dental prosthesis to be produced is dimensioned such that under consideration of the material used for the blank, in normal use of the prosthesis, a maximum tensile stress occurs which corresponds to about 0.1–0.7 times the tensile strength of the material used.
