    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an additive manufactured article including a first portion and a second portion integral to the first portion. The second portion includes a coupling configured to engage a tool, as well as a frangible section at a connection point to the first portion. Further, a method of making the article is provided, including obtaining a photopolymerizable material and selectively curing the photopolymerizable material to form the article. Another method is provided, including obtaining a digital three-dimensional model of a patient's dental anatomy comprising a tooth in need of restoration and computing a digital three-dimensional model of a dental restoration to fit within the patient's dental anatomy, including determining a shape of the dental restoration. Optionally, the patient's dental anatomy may be prepared for a dental restoration prior to obtaining the digital three-dimensional model. A kit is also provided, including the article and a tool configured to attach to the coupling of the article. Having a coupling integral to the rest of the article allows for easy attachment to a handling tool.
