Abstract

The invention relates to a method for providing a 3D-print data set of a dental model structure (100) to be mounted on an articulator (5), comprising: —providing an articulator data set of the articulator (5) on which the dental model structure (100) is to be mounted; —providing a dental situation data set which represents a dental situation of an upper jaw and/or a lower jaw, the dental situation data set including data to display the dental situation as a virtual representation of the dental situation on a display; —selecting at least one distance element (20) from a plurality of different predefined and/or prefabricated distance elements based on the articulator data set and the dental situation data set; —generating a connecting structure data set representing at least a virtual connecting structure (15) arranged between the virtual representation of the dental situation and a virtual representation of the at least one selected distance element; and —generating the 3D-print data set based on the dental situation data set and the connecting structure data set. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding computer program product, a dental model structure, a mounting pla…
