A method for creating three-dimensional data of a position of an outer periphery at the occlusal surface side of a keeper includes steps of placing a keeper analog having a reference plane in same shape as and in parallel to a surface at the occlusal surface side of a keeper to be embedded projectingly on an abutment model, three-dimensionally measuring an outside shape of the abutment model having the keeper analog, acquiring a normal vector and an outer periphery of the reference plane based on the measured three-dimensional data, moving the outer periphery to a position at the abutment model side by a height of the keeper analog from the reference plane along the normal vector and acquiring three-dimensional data of the outer periphery based on the position.
