The invention relates to glass-ceramics based on the lithium silicate system which can be mechanically machined easily in an intermediate step of crystallisation and, after complete crystallisation, represent a very strong, highly-translucent and chemically-stable glass-ceramic. Likewise, the invention relates to a method for the production of these glass-ceramics. The glass-ceramics according to the invention are used as dental material.

The invention relates to a one-part dental adhesive composition comprising polymerizable component(s) with an acidic moiety as Component A, photo-initiator(s) as Component B1, transition metal ion component(s) as Component C, solvent(s) other than water as Component D1, a stabilizer as Component E, the stabilizer comprising a free radical moiety or being selected from anaerobic stabilizers, for use in a process of fixing a composite material to the surface of hard dental tissue, the composite material comprising a redox initiator system with an oxidizing agent and a reducing agent.
