A method for manufacturing a dental prosthetic assembly, the dental prosthetic assembly comprising a first and a second element (102; 104), the first element comprising a first connection portion with a reception configured to establish a mechanical connection between the first and the second element (102; 104) by receiving a protrusion of a second connection portion comprised by the second element, the method comprising: providing a first 3D digital model of the first element as a first template and a second 3D digital model of the second element as a second template, manufacturing a first physical copy of the first element using the first template and a second physical copy of the second element using the second template, acquiring scan data of the manufactured first and second physical copy, providing a first 3D digital scan model of the manufactured first physical copy and a second 3D digital scan model of the manufactured second physical copy using the scan data, determining using the first and second scan model deviations of the mechanical connection violating one or more fitting criteria, when replacing for establishing the mechanical connection the templates by the scan models, compensating the determined deviations of the mechanical connection to satisfy the one or more violated fitting criteria, wherein the compensating comprises at least one of the following: modifying the first template and modifying the second template, using the one or more modified templates for providing one or more modified physical copies. the first element comprising a first connection portion with a reception configured to establish a mechanical connection between the first and the second element (102; 104) by receiving a protrusion of a second connection portion comprised by the second element, the method comprising: providing a first 3D digital model of the first element as a first template and a second 3D digital model of the second element as a second template, manufacturing a first physical copy of the first element using the first template and a second physical copy of the second element using the second template, acquiring scan data of the manufactured first and second physical copy, providing a first 3D digital scan model of the manufactured first physical copy and a second 3D digital scan model of the manufactured second physical copy using the scan data, determining using the first and second scan model deviations of the mechanical connection violating one or more fitting criteria, when replacing for establishing the mechanical connection the templates by the scan models, compensating the determined deviations of the mechanical connection to satisfy the one or more violated fitting criteria, wherein the compensating comprises at least one of the following: modifying the first template and modifying the second template, using the one or more modified templates for providing one or more modified physical copies. providing a first 3D digital model of the first element as a first template and a second 3D digital model of the second element as a second template, manufacturing a first physical copy of the first element using the first template and a second physical copy of the second element using the second template, acquiring scan data of the manufactured first and second physical copy, providing a first 3D digital scan model of the manufactured first physical copy and a second 3D digital scan model of the manufactured second physical copy using the scan data, determining using the first and second scan model deviations of the mechanical connection violating one or more fitting criteria, when replacing for establishing the mechanical connection the templates by the scan models, compensating the determined deviations of the mechanical connection to satisfy the one or more violated fitting criteria, wherein the compensating comprises at least one of the following: modifying the first template and modifying the second template, using the one or more modified templates for providing one or more modified physical copies.
