Abstract: A system for production of a dental crown (23, 24) includes identification equipment (2), modeling equipment (9), ordering equipment (6), and an automated production arrangement (16). The latter, as a function of one or more first information items, is arranged to effect production, by means of pressing or pressure-casting, of an integrated dental crown which is made up of two layers. The first layer comprises or consists of porcelain material, and the second layer consists of aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, etc. The second layer forms a cap, via which the dental crown can be applied to a tooth stump (28) of a patient (1). The invention also relates to a dental replacement component consisting of the dental crown.

Abstract: A ready-to-use, microwavable cookie dough formulation that includes a flour mixture of (a) a gluten-containing flour and (b) a low-gluten flour or a starch component in a weight ratio of (a)/(b) of greater than 2:1, sugar, water and a spread-controlling agent. The spread controlling agent includes a cellulose component, a pregelatinized starch, a humectant, and optionally dietary fiber, together in a combined amount effective to impart water retention to the dough formulation but less than about 10% by weight. The agent controls spreading of the dough formulation during microwave baking. The dough formulation is one that is used to make cookies.

Abstract: Methods are provided for computer-based planning of a dental restorative procedure of a patient having a craniooral space and/or of at least one dental component for the dental restorative procedure. Certain methods include determining a first spatial position of a first boundary surface, in the craniooral space, of a first dental unit of a dental restoration; determining a second spatial position of a second boundary surface, in the craniooral space remote the first boundary surface, of a second dental unit of the dental restoration; and determining a third spatial position of at least a portion of the at least one dental component relative at least one of the first and second spatial positions.

Abstract: The present invention provides an innovative packaging for microwave preparation of expandable food, such as cookies, an innovative food product prepared from the packaging and the method of preparation thereof. The innovative packaging includes first and second susceptor sheet portions each having an accordion-like shape; one or more members for spacing the susceptor sheet portions at a predetermined distance; and an expandable uncooked food placed between the two susceptor sheets, wherein the food is in intimate contact with sheet portions and becomes efficiently browned and crisped during microwave cooking. The food is preferably a cookie dough.

Abstract: A method, system and dental prosthesis are provided to facilitate simulation of the natural appearance of teeth. The prosthesis can be formed to include a component to which an aesthetic coating, such as a coloring or tint, can be applied. Further, the prosthesis can include a porcelain coating disposed on the outer surface thereof, and on top of the aesthetic coating, such that the aesthetic coating can be visible through the porcelain coating of the prosthesis. During production, the crown can be coated with a metal and/or ceramic powder by means of a powder printer that can be controlled by computer equipment. A practical and rapid application function can be obtained to produce an extremely natural-looking result.

Abstract: An ordering and manufacturing system is used to produce all or part of a tooth replacement from gold. Functions are included for scanning or reading of the treatment situation. Computerized simulating and/or shape-determining functions determine the optimum or desired shape of the tooth replacement. The system is activated for ordering and manufacturing all or part of the tooth replacement. A module system is capable of selecting, from among various manufacturing materials and tools, a manufacturing material in the form of gold and a tool in the form of a casting tool. The module system controls or determines the supply or amount of gold to the casting tool. A dental crown or unit can be made of cast gold. A known ordering and manufacturing system can be used and retain its effective and rapid functions at the same time as another alternative for tooth replacement is presented on the market.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for production of a three-dimensional dyed macropattern in a web of web-shaped flexible material. The method comprises a bonding device being made, in interaction with the dye-coated tops of the raised macroportions, to form bonding points and three-dimensional bonding areas at the same time as the bonding areas and/or the bonding points are dyed, thereby forming a three-dimensional dyed macropattern.

Abstract: The invention relates to a material laminate for use as a covering sheet on absorbent articles such as sanitary napkins, incontinence protectors, diapers, pant diapers, or the like. The material laminate comprises a first, fluid pervious fibrous material layer and a second fluid pervious porous material layer, wherein at least one of the two material layers comprises thermoplastic material and wherein the two material layers are mutually connected by means of the covering material laminate exhibiting bond sites within which the thermoplastic material has been caused to at least partially soften or melt and thereby bond the two material layers together.

Abstract: A method of producing basic starting material for the manufacture of fastener tabs comprises the steps of: stretching a first sheet of elastic material in a first direction; applying a second and a third sheet of material onto respective opposite sides of the first sheet; fastening the three material sheets together in at least two mutually separated zones that extend parallel with each other in one direction perpendicular to the first direction; dividing the first sheet in each region between two zones along a line that lies between the zones, whereby the first sheet in each region between the zones contracts to a non-stretched state, and thereafter fastening the sheets together in each region between the zones.

Abstract: A method of producing basic starting material for the manufacture of fastener tabs (31) intended for joining the side portions of the front and rear parts of an absorbent article that includes a front part, a rear part and an intermediate crotch part, so as to give the article a pants-like configuration According to the invention the method comprises the steps of

Abstract: Method of producing a fibrous material layer mainly intended to be incorporated in an absorbent article such as a diaper, pant diaper, incontinence guard, sanitary napkin or the like. At least one bundle of continuous filaments, so called tow (12), is opened and the filaments are separated and evened to a layer having the desired fiber distribution, after which the layer is bonded in points, spots or lines in a bonding pattern, but where the filaments otherwise are substantially unbonded to each other.
