The invention relates to a dental prosthesis production device and method of manufacturing a dental prosthesis in which the dental prosthesis has an implant (40) and an abutment (10) which has a shape that is compatible with the implant (40) and on or to which abutment a dental structure (28) that is made of a dental material, in particular ceramic and/or plastic, and produced with the aid of a CAM process using rapid prototyping or compression molding technology can be secured. The abutment is mounted on the implant (40) via a releasable connection, in particular a screw connection (44), having an anti-rotation mechanism (50), and an anti-rotation device (groove 22) is formed between the abutment (10) and the dental structure (28). A selection device (66) is provided for abutments, said selection device allowing a selection of the abutment (10) for producing the dental prosthesis, optionally after reducing the abutment height to a specified value in a patient-specific manner, and a machining tool, in particular a milling cutter, or a CAM device is provided for shortening the abutment (10).
A method for production of a dental prosthesis using a production device, comprising:
