An object of the present invention is to provide a dental resin-reinforced glass ionomer cement composition which exhibit high surface curability even under wet conditions, which makes it difficult for the surface to become cloudy even if moisture comes in contact with at the initial stage of curing, exhibits high mechanical properties, low water absorption expansion and excellent coloring resistance in the set product and is also excellent in storage stability. The dental resin-reinforced glass ionomer cement composition consisting of a powder material and a liquid material, wherein the powder material contains (a) acid-reactive glass powder, the liquid material contains (b) water, (c) polymer of acidic group-containing polymerizable monomer, (d) hydroxyl group-containing (meth)acrylate-based polymerizable monomer and (e) tri or more functional (meth)acrylamide-based polymerizable monomer, and at least one of the powder material and the liquid material contains (f) polymerization initiator.

The present disclosure relates to a glass composition as well as a glass powder. The disclosure also relates to the use in the dental field, e.g. as dental material such as dental filling or dental restauration material, in particular as or for the production of a glass ionomer cement, for example for the treatment and/or for the filling of cavities in human and/or animal teeth and/or for tooth restoration.

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.

Disclosed herein are curable glass ionomer compositions that include a first paste and a second paste, and methods for using the disclosed compositions. The first paste includes water, a polyacid, and a non acid-reactive filler. The second paste includes water, an acid-reactive filler; and non-aggregated, water-miscible, nano-sized silica particles having at least 25% surface coverage of the particles with a silane. The composition is essentially free of a resin. In some embodiments, the water content of the first paste and the second paste of the paste/paste GI composition disclosed herein is less than 20% by weight, based on the total weight of the composition.
