A method for the production of replacement teeth ( 5 ) from a three-dimensionally determined and digitized model, whereby for improved handling, cost and quality of the produced replacement tooth ( 5 ) a method including the following steps is carried out: inputting the data for the digitized model, treating the inner surface ( 9 ) of the surface model with a given offset value to generate a cement gap ( 7, 8 ) between the tooth replacement ( 5 ) to be made and tooth stump ( 1, 2 ) and calculation of a program for machining the blank or a mold by means of a machine tool.
