Abstract:
A method for producing a dentist tool for use in removing tooth structure is provided. The method includes acquiring three-dimensional data relating to a shape of a tooth and part of a neighboring tooth. The method includes processing the data to determine an overlay fitting the tooth and part of the neighboring tooth. The method further includes processing the data to determine the tooth structure to be removed from the tooth to prepare the tooth for further treatment. The method includes determining first and second guiding edges such that the two edges are spaced apart a distance of at least 0.5 mm and configured to enable a dentist cutting tool to be guided by simultaneously contacting the first and second guiding edges to enable a guided removal of at least partially the predetermined part of tooth structure. The method includes producing the determined overlay having the determined guiding edges.
