Abstract: Preparation of a dental prosthesis that includes a gingiva part having retention holes for seating of manufactured teeth, with the retention holes being enlarged relative to the manufactured teeth. Wax in the enlarged retention holes permits adjustments in positioning of the manufactured teeth, and a helper structure preserves this positioning when the wax is removed and a curable gingiva material is filled into the retention holes. Aspects described herein include digital and/or automatic design of the dental prosthesis and its constituent pieces, as well as automated fabrication thereof in whole or in part, such as in a dental CAD/CAM system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing an x-ray image (1) of an object (2) by means of an x-ray device (3). An x-ray source (4) and an x-ray detector (5) are moved about an object (2) during an at least partial circulation (8, 9), and the x-ray beams (10) which are generated by the x-ray source (4) and pass through the object (2) are detected from multiple different directions by means of the x-ray detector (5). In the process, at least one optical camera (13, 14) captures the object (2) during the circulation, wherein an optical image (15, 17) is produced. The optical camera (13, 14) has a rigidly defined position relative to the x-ray source (4) and/or the x-ray detector (5). The optical image (15, 17) is then used to determine a movement trajectory of the object (2) relative to the x-ray source (4) and/or the x-ray detector (5).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring a dental object (1) using a dental camera (2). During measurement, several optical three-dimensional images (3, 50, 51) of the object (1) are produced. During measurement, an acoustic sound (10, 12) is generated by means of a sound producer (9, 11), said sound (10, 12) being used as feedback for the user and information relating to the current status of a recording of the images (3, 50, 51) and/or relating to image requirements of the dental camera (2) are transmitted to the user. Then, each individual image (3, 50, 51) it is automatically checked by a computer (6) as to whether an overlapping area (7, 8) between the images (3, 50, 51) which are to be combined meets the defined recording requirements for a correct recording.

Abstract: A 3D printer comprising a resin vat, a component carrier, a transport box for depositing the component carrier, a transport device for removing the component carrier from the transport box and transporting it into the resin vat, and for moving the component carrier downward and upward in the resin vat The transport device has translatory axes in the vertical and horizontal directions, each of which can be driven independently by a motor, the transport device having a locking device that detachably connects the component carrier. The locking device, during the downward movement along the vertical translatory axis, reaches a specific position (P) by the drive of the respective motor, at which a stop located on the vertical translatory axis sets a coupling element in motion. A spring-loaded locking pin arranged in contact with the coupling element is immersed in a bayonet opening of the component carrier by the movement. The immersed locking pin can be brought into a locking position in the bayonet opening via the horizontal translatory axis.
