Today’s dental praxis is strongly based on assumptions and experience; hence it often leads to unwanted complications and failure in the therapy. Complex dental treatments, such as crowns, bridges, prostheses, implant constructions, can cost a lot of time, money and effort to be created. In order to decrease the number of failures, the dentistry is striving for digital solutions capable to plan and predict treatments. The content of this paper highlights step by step procedure of building numerical model of intact and endodontic treated tooth. A model of this kind can help in performing analysis for accurate calculation of the load on the teeth (one, more or all teeth), prediction of the outcome of the implant and/or implant-prosthetic dental treatment. The proposed procedure can be applied for designing a numerical model of whole jaw which can be used to find answers of whether the complex dental construction will withstand the chewing forces and hance can help by proposing a precise solution if the predicted outcome is unfavourable.
