Date Jun. 25, 1998A device for dispensing artificial teeth comprises a tooth support ribbon (2) which is made from a flexible material and is shaped to form an arch which substantially corresponds in shape to an upper or lower natural dental arch. A set (10) of artificial teeth (11, 12) is removably mounted on the support ribbon 92) by a slot (13) in each tooth which engages with a key (16) in the ribbon (2). The teeth are arranged on the ribbon (2) in an order which simulates natural dentition. The radius of the arch may be adjusted by an extensible cross-member (3) connected at each end to the ribbon (2) and extending across the arch. |
