An assortment of manufactured teeth are disclosed which are fabricated according to their function and color. The outer dimensions of the teeth, especially in the marginal area, are larger than those of a prepared tooth. The teeth are preferably made of plastic, ceramic or hybrid materials. Adjacent teeth can be interconnected in the manner of a bridge. A method for preparing manufactured teeth is also disclosed in which the fabricated tooth is clamped in a device which virtually correlates the same to the situation of the prepared tooth. The inner fit to the prepared teeth is produced by milling out the lumen. The outer fit is produced by milling down until the preparation limit is reached. A clearance fit with a marginal range of less than 100 μm is preferably provided. A clearance fit with a marginal range of less than 200 μm is preferably provided in the inner area.
