  • Publication number: 20240082926
    Abstract: A tool holder for a machine tool, having a retaining component which can be rotated about an axis of rotation and on which a cutting tool is or can be fastened in a releasable manner, wherein the retaining component has at least two plug-in mounts, which are offset in the circumferential direction about the axis of rotation and are intended for receiving a respective cutting tool, having an elongate plug-in shank and a cutting portion, wherein each cutting tool is or can be fixed in the plug-in mount via a separate retaining device, and wherein the cutting tools delimit between them a receiving space for a workpiece which can be machined by the cutting tools together, the cutting tools having their cutting portions facing toward the receiving space.

  • Publication number: 20190328313
    Abstract: A method for recording jaw movements of a patient includes detachably adhering dental brackets to teeth surfaces of the teeth of a lower jaw of the patient, attaching a position marker and a sensor element which detects the position marker to a head of the patient, and recording, via a jaw movement, a relative movement of the sensor element relative to the position marker. The sensor element is attached to a skull of the patient, and the position marker is attached to the lower jaw of the patient via the dental brackets, or the sensor element is attached to the lower jaw of the patient via the dental brackets, and the position marker is attached to the skull of the patient.

  • Publication number: 20180368750
    Abstract: A method for determining an individual biting force of a patient includes providing a test piece with a deformable nature, individually pre-shaping a surface of the test piece for the patient so as to obtain at least one of a defined positioning of the test piece on teeth of the patient and on a device supported by at least one of an upper jaw and a lower jaw of the patient, introducing the test piece between the upper jaw and the lower jaw of the patient, biting, via the patient, onto the test piece so as to provide a deformation of the test piece, and determining the individual biting force by examining the deformation of the test piece.

  • Publication number: 20180243061
    Abstract: A method for planning a treatment includes recording a first data record of three-dimensional image data of surfaces of an upper and lower jaw. A bite plate with cured impressions of the upper and lower jaw and markers is fitted to the patient. A second data record is recorded of three-dimensional image data of surface data of the bite plate without the patient. A movement recorder is fastened to the lower jaw while the patient bites on the bite plate. The bite plate is removed from the patient. Movements of the movement recorder during mastication movements are recorded and stored in a third data record as movement data. The three-dimensional image data of the first data record is combined with the movement data. A registration is performed using the second data record. The mastication movements of the lower jaw relative to the upper jaw are displayed for treatment planning.
