Abstract: An assortment of manufactured teeth are disclosed which are fabricated according to their function and color. The outer dimensions of the teeth, especially in the marginal area, are larger than those of a prepared tooth. The teeth are preferably made of plastic, ceramic or hybrid materials. Adjacent teeth can be interconnected in the manner of a bridge. A method for preparing manufactured teeth is also disclosed in which the fabricated tooth is clamped in a device which virtually correlates the same to the situation of the prepared tooth. The inner fit to the prepared teeth is produced by milling out the lumen. The outer fit is produced by milling down until the preparation limit is reached. A clearance fit with a marginal range of less than 100 ?m is preferably provided. A clearance fit with a marginal range of less than 200 ?m is preferably provided in the inner area.

Abstract: The invention relates to a set of pre-manufactured teeth, consisting at least of one first molar or premolar selected from a group of molars or premolars provided for one jaw, and at least of one second premolar or molar selected from a group of antagonists provided for the other jaw, at least three centric contact points being provided in each case in the fossa of a premolar or molar, a stamp cusp of the antagonist coming to rest on the contact points in the position of intercuspation, the contact points being disposed on a compensation curve defined by the movement of the jaw condyles, the centric contact points each lying on a spherical sector, and abrasions being disposed in at least one movement track without breaking up the punctiform contacts.
