Method for manufacturing dental reconstructions and blank for carrying out the method

摘要

A blank for making artificial tooth parts has a body which is shaped by removing material from it and fasteners (12, 19) for mounting the blank in a machining device. The body has a reinforced region (B) with a higher break strength than its machinable region (C). Also claimed are (i) the preparation of artificial tooth parts from blanks, using the reinforced region to create the reinforcing structure in the occlusal area of the tooth part and (ii) the preparation of the blanks by bonding layers (B) and (C) together to form a laminated composite.
