An artificial tooth is provided that includes a cutting mass brought into hardened
condition by light polymerization, a tooth bone mass brought into hardened condition
by light polymerization, and a base mass. Those masses bordering one another are
intensively interconnected with one another. The process for producing an artificial
tooth includes subjecting the cutting mass disposed in a mold to light polymerization,
subsequently disposing the tooth bone mass on the first mass while the cutting
mass is still disposed in the mold, and subjecting the tooth bone mass to light
polymerization with light passed through the mold and the cutting mass disposed
in the mold.
