Abstract: A method is provided for manufacturing a template, whereby a digital or physical model of the shape of at least a part of the jaw is generated. A desired shape for the jaw bone for positioning a bone superstructure is compared to the model and a bone part of the jaw bone is identified, which bone part is to be removed in order to approach the desired shape. A guide surface is provided on the template to guide a milling element in order to remove the identified bone part. A bone superstructure is also described.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for manufacturing a suprastructure (7) with artificial teeth (8) which is mounted on at least one implant (9,10) that is provided in the cavity of the mouth of a person and that has to be fixed to the bone of the lower jaw or the upper jaw (1), whereby a drill jig (3) is manufactured with at least one opening (4) for performing a boring (5) in the bone for mounting said implant (9,10), with the feature that the position of said opening (4) in the drill jig (3) and the position of the latter is determined in relation to at least one reference organ (2) that is fixed to said bone.
