Abstract
A dental measuring device for three-dimensional measurement of a patient's teeth having projection means with a projection unitto project a measuring structure onto a tooth to be examined. The device also has a camera to capture a measuring structure projected onto the tooth. According to the present invention, the projection unit has at least one UV light source, wherein the power output from the UV light source is selected or can be selected such that light-curing dental materials can be cured by the effect of the UV light, in such a way that the device can be used or is used for curing light-curing dental materials.
