Abstract

A method, a system and a user interface for creating a digital restoration design for the manufacture of a dental restoration for one or more of a patient's teeth where minimal manual interaction is required when setting the restoration margin line includes obtaining a digital 3D representation of the patient's unprepared teeth; obtaining a set of one or more digital teeth anatomies; arranging the digital teeth anatomies and the digital 3D representation according to a preferred relative arrangement and creating a digital restoration design including a restoration margin line, where the restoration margin line is derived at least partly from an intersection of the digital 3D representation and the digital teeth anatomies.
