A zirconia molded body and a dental mill blank may decrease of the translucency of a zirconia sintered body upon firing even when the cooling solvent used for wet processing of the zirconia molded body or dental mill blank by a dental CAD/CAM system is contaminated. This can allow more convenient fabrication of a zirconia sintered body. A zirconia molded body may include zirconia; a stabilizer capable of inhibiting a phase transformation of zirconia; and a binder, and having an open porosity of 25% or less.

A method that includes the step of using a person's fingers to push a dental composition into engagement with a damaged tooth surface of a damaged tooth thereby adhering the dental composition to the damaged tooth surface and covering at least a portion of the damaged tooth surface. The dental composition includes a base material comprising at least one of the following compounds chosen from the group consisting of: a product consisting of one or more hydrocarbon-based waxes that may also include inorganic fillers and/or organic fillers; an uncured, uncrosslinked silicone high consistency rubber base; and a hydrophobic water insoluble solid material. The base material has a coating composition on one or more surface of the base material wherein the coating composition comprises: one or more desensitization ingredient and at least one dry, powdered hydrophilic polymeric substance.

To provide a resin cured body for dental cutting processing used for cutting and machining using a dental CAD/CAM system, wherein the resin cured body consists of the cured body of a composition comprising: (a) an inorganic filler containing 55 wt. % or more of an element belonging to group II and/or group XIII of the periodic table in terms of an oxide, (b) a polymerizable monomer, and (c) a polymerization initiator.

The present application describes fib-reinforced dental composites (FRCs), processes for producing and uses of, the fibre-reinforced dental composites. More particularly, the fibre-reinforced dental 5 composites described herein comprise a polymerisable resin and from about 0.5% to about 25% w/w of fibres having a diameter of from about 3 μm to about 9 μm and a length of from about 60 μm to about 2 mm.

A dental restoration device includes a sleeve having an exterior surface and an interior pocket that is at least partially filled with a dental cement, and a crown having an exterior surface and an interior surface that is mated to the exterior surface of the crown and bonded thereto by an adhesive disposed between the exterior surface of the sleeve and the interior surface of the crown.

The present invention relates to a dental composition and a dental kit comprising a polymerisable adhesive free of a photoinitiator, and a self-cure composite restorative including a redox initiator system. The dental composition cures upon contact between the self-cure composite restorative and the adhesive, to thereby form a dental restoration. The present invention also relates to a method of applying the dental composition, and methods of replacing a dental amalgam with the dental composition, or dental kit, of the present invention.

A dentin regenerative cell culture that can bring about a rapid regeneration of dentin in a deficit region. In the treatment of a tooth using the dentin regenerative cell culture, a root canal where a pulpectomy has been performed is filled with a root canal filler containing dental pulp stem cells. The dentin regenerative cell culture is then implanted in the deficit region of dentin, and temporary sealing with a packing is carried out. The dentin regenerative cell culture is formed three-dimensionally in conformity with the shape of the deficit region with the coalescence of cell masses of a plurality of odontoblasts, and thus the dentin regeneration is well promoted. In addition, gaps between the dentin regenerative cell culture and biological tissue can be rapidly filled. Infection due to bacterial infiltration can thereby be prevented.
