Abstract
A method of correcting an axial position of a workpiece support (1) used for removing material from a dental workpiece (2) which is held by the workpiece support (1) and is rotated together with the workpiece support (1) about a drive rotation axis (3) when material is being removed. The workpiece support (1) has at least two workpiece support parts (4, 5, 6) which can be separated from each other and connected to each other. One of the workpiece support parts (4, 5) has at least one compensation region (7) with a material projection (8) for introducing a compensation surface (9) by removing material, and the other workpiece support part (6) has a seating surface (10) for connecting to the compensation surface (9) in a form fitting manner.

-9. (canceled)
A kit for forming a workpiece support for machining of a dental workpiece, which is retained by the workpiece support and, during the machining, is rotated together with the workpiece support about a drive rotation axis, the kit comprising:
- first and second workpiece-support parts provided in an initial state, separate from one another, and which are adapted to be connected to one another in a subsequent state,
- the first workpiece-support part has at least one compensation region with an increased diameter material overhang that is adapted for forming a compensation surface,
- the second workpiece-support part has a seat surface that encloses a cavity, and the seat surface is not connectable on the compensation surface due to an entirety of the increased diameter material overhang being present on the first workpiece support part in the initial state, and
- the increased diameter material overhang is configured for material removal to achieve the subsequent state in which the compensation surface that is configured for a matching, form-fitting connection to the seat surface to by insertion of the compensation surface into the seat surface.
