The first hole substantially extends along a first axis () and is formed as a blind hole having an end region (). The second hole substantially extends along a second axis (), wherein the entrance to the second hole is located coronally to and intersecting the end region of the first hole for creating the angulated channel. The first axis and the second axis are inclined with respect to each other. At least a part of the end region of the first hole is kept as a part of the angulated channel. The disclosure also relates to dental component that is preferably manufactured by this method and to a method of designing a dental component with an angulated channel using CAD/CAM.
