Swedish term

designat för att ge dig fullständig kontroll vid arbete med lager och formgivni

Not for points Homework / test Swedish to English Medical Medical: Dentistry
This phrase is talking about a dental tool designed to give you complete control while working with layers and "formgivning." Formgivning is translated as "design" everywhere I look, but I am unsure whether that is the proper word to use in a dental situation of filling tooth cavities or not. It would also sound redundant to use "designed" and "design" in the same sentence. Suggestions? Solutions?

Votes to reclassify question as PRO/non-PRO:

Non-PRO (1): Anna Herbst

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

forming/shaping

Why not just forming or shaping - if it is to do with fillings, to make them follow the shape of the tooth/smooth them, or whatever dentists do to make them look/feel good, etc.
