Abstract
The invention relates to a method and a means for preparation of a dental bridge for a dental prosthesis. The dental bridge is modelled by casting in a mould prepared from a casting model. The casting model is built up in the mouth of the patient by modules (3,6) which are joined together into a unit. A module consists of a metal socket (3) on which a cap (6) with a through hole is mounted. The modules are connected to each other preferably by gluing.
