Abstract
The invention relates to a computer-implemented method for assessing a clearance between a tooth element to be provided with a dental restoration element and an antagonist of the tooth element. A 3D digital teeth model with 3D digital representations of the tooth element and of a surface area of the antagonist is received. The surface area is offset from the antagonist by adding an offset. The resulting offset surface area defines a limit for the tooth element. For the clearance it is checked, whether the tooth element violates one or more penetration criteria regarding the offset surface area. If the tooth element violates the one or more penetration criteria, the clearance is assessed to be insufficient for the tooth element to be provided with the dental restoration element. Else the clearance is assessed to be sufficient. The result of the assessment is output.
