  • Support of removable components in a teeth model manufactured by means of CAM
    Patent number: 10631952
    Abstract: A physical model of a set of teeth, wherein the physical model includes a gingival part in which a cavity comprising a cavity wall is formed; and a removable component having a part shaped as a tooth, where the removable component is configured for fitting into the cavity with a gap at an interface between the removable component and the cavity wall. The removable component or the cavity wall includes one or more supporting elements extending across the gap to establish contact between the removable component and the cavity wall to support and position the removable component in the cavity, and where contact between the removable component and the cavity wall at the interface only is provided by the supporting elements.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 26, 2016
    Date of Patent: April 28, 2020
    Assignee: 3Shape A/S

  • Support of removable components in a teeth model manufactured by means of CAM
    Patent number: 9492250
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of generating a virtual model of a set of teeth for manufacturing a physical model of the set of teeth includes providing a virtual model of the set of teeth generating a cavity in said gingival part, into which cavity a removable component fits, where the removable component and the cavity are configured to provide a gap at an interface; and providing for supporting and positioning the removable component in the cavity, wherein the area of contact between the removable component and the cavity wall at the interface is controlled by the shape of the adjoining surfaces of the supporting and positioning and the other of the removable component and the cavity wall.
