Abstract

This paper reports recent experimental work in contouring toothimprints. A few years ago interest arose among dentists for a measuring system enabling one the study of small changes in the geometry of toothsurfaces in situ. This interest was stimulated by the fact that new dental restorative materials (micro-filling composites) are more frequently used as an alternative for the lately general used amalgam [1]. As material characteristics of the filling under in situ conditions among others will be decisive for the durability of the reconstruct on, accurate measurements of the geometry are necessary.
