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 that is malleable at 37° C. or lower and safe for a human oral environment. The base material has at least one dry, powdered hydrophilic polymeric substance engaged with and dispersed on one or more surface of the base material.

The invention relates to the field of medicine, namely dentistry, and can be used for dental rebuilding without tooth facing. The technical result lies in improving the fixation strength of ceramic veneers without tooth facing. This result is achieved in the method of mounting ceramic veneers comprising surface preparation of at least one veneer, surface preparation of at least one tooth and their coupling using light-cured adhesive cement by means of sandblasting of the tooth surface during its preparation with aluminum oxide powder Al2O3, etching by orthophosphoric acid for 15-30 seconds followed by washing and drying, surface treatment with adhesive for 15-20 seconds, application of a bonding agent, and by means of veneer surface etching with hydrofluoric acid during its preparation followed by treatment with a ceramic primer for one minute and application of a bonding agent on the surface.

A radically polymerizable composition having at least one acidic radically polymerizable monomer, at least one fluoroaluminosilicate glass filler and/or radiopaque glass filler, and at least one masking agent in solid form.

Integrated support devices for providing temporary primary stability to a dental prosthesis implant, each individually designed and manufactured for a specific pre-identify patient are also provided. An integrated support device can include a prosthesis interface member configured to connect to an abutment or reduced sized portion of a dental prosthesis/implant. The integrated support device also includes one or more bonding wings for connecting to the adjacent healthy teeth.

Radically polymerizable dental material which contains (a) at least one polyfunctional radically polymerizable monomer, (b) at least one further radically polymerizable monomer which can be monofunctional or polyfunctional, (c) at least one photoinitiator for the radical polymerization and (d) at least one filler. The material is characterized in that the mixture of the monomers (a) and (b) has a refractive index of from 1.50 to 1.70 and in that the refractive index of the monomer mixture before the curing corresponds to the refractive index of the filler used or is higher by up to 0.013 and after the curing is higher than the refractive index of the filler by at least 0.02.

Dental articles and methods of using same. The dental article (510) includes a shell defining a volume, the shell (512) comprising a circumferential base (514) and an incisal/occlusal region (516) distal from the circumferential base. The dental article (510) further includes a hardenable dental composition (518) located within the volume, and an isolation film (520) located at the circumferential base of the shell.
