Abstract: The invention concerns a process for the production of a frame for inlays, crowns and bridges in dental techniques. By means of the process, a considerable reduction in work and time expenditure is achieved in comparison with known processes. In the case of this process, frames of spinel, alumina, zirconia, metal powder or similar materials are produced in that a) a shrink foil is drawn on the stump or the stumps of a working model; b) the draw-non shrink foil is provided with a slip; and c) the shrink foil and the slip present on the shrink foil are removed from the working model and calcined to burn off the shrink foil.
