A blank is provided for producing a dental prosthesis (tooth crown) comprising a mechanically processable material block and a holder connected thereto for clamping in an automatic processing tool. Said block is provided with a subgingival anatomic implant connecting part which is protrusively arranged thereon and in which an implant fixture for fixing it to the implant head is formed. The holder is arranged on the surface of the block arrangement side and the implant fixture to a surface on the implant side, thereby making it possible to work the blank by means of a computer-controlled conventional tool. A threaded channel which is embodied in the centre of the block in a parallel direction with respect to the surface on the fixation side, the angular orientation of the mastication surface of the tooth crown with respect to the occlusion vertical and the subgingival anatomic implant connecting part make it possible to fix the prosthetic element (tooth crown) directly to the implant without an abutment and with correct orientation in the row of teeth.
