The invention relates to a method for producing a dental prosthesis element(7), according to which the dental prosthesis element (7) is manuallyreworked. Construction data (17, 17, 17) relating to the dental prosthesiselement to be produced is recorded together with measurement data (7)relating to the dental prosthesis element (7) to be produced and is reproducedon a display (4), the measurement data having been recorded by means of athree-dimensional measurement device (2). The invention also relates to onesuch method whereby a 3D data record of the tooth situation (14) is reproducedon the display (4) instead of the construction data. The invention furtherrelates to a device for the partial manual treatment of the dental prosthesiselement. Said device comprises a three-dimensional measurement device (2), adisplay (4), and a computer unit (3) comprising means for the correlation andcomparison of two data records and for graphically presenting the datagenerated by the comparison.
