Method for manufacturing a template to adapt the shape of a bone defect in a jaw to a bone superstructure

摘要

A method is provided for manufacturing a template, whereby a digital or physical model of the shape of at least a part of the jaw is generated. A desired shape for the jaw bone for positioning a bone superstructure is compared to the model and a bone part of the jaw bone is identified, which bone part is to be removed in order to approach the desired shape. A guide surface is provided on the template to guide a milling element in order to remove the identified bone part. A bone superstructure is also described.
