Abstract:
There is disclosed a method for manufacturing a denture comprising an artificial gingiva surface, a seating surface facing at least a part of the gingiva surface when placed in the mouth of a patient, at least one tooth receiving hole provided in the artificial gingiva surface and extending through to the seating surface and an artificial tooth arranged in the tooth receiving hole, The method comprises printing an intermediate denture base comprising the artificial gingiva surface, the at least one tooth receiving hole for receiving the artificial tooth, arranging the artificial tooth in the at least one tooth receiving hole, fixing the intermediate denture base in a milling machine, and milling the denture comprising providing the seating surface by removing at least a part of the tooth extending through the tooth receiving hole. This provides an improved manufacturing process of denture.
