The present invention relates to a dental composition including cement and a non-aqueous liquid, wherein the cement includes a first domain including alite, a second domain including belite, and a matrix located between one or more selected from the group consisting of the first domain and the second domain and configured to include silicon (Si)-atom-doped tricalcium aluminate (3CaO.Al.sub.2O.sub.3). A dental hydraulic composition according to the present invention is a single ointment-type composition, and is thus easy to use and exhibits a good aesthetic appearance, high curability and high biocompatibility.

The present disclosure relates to a medical cement composition containing calcium silicate in an amount of less than 20 wt % of a total weight of the composition, with a lithium salt being added thereto. The medical cement composition of the present disclosure has a low compressive strength of 12 MPa or less, after being hardened, for easy removal, excellent stability in storage, and high bioactivity.

Base material arrangements having at least two layers can accommodate the addition of antifungal material (nanofiller), such as in denture base resin without significantly compromising the mechanical properties and/or translucency of the base material arrangements. Antifungal agents such as nanosilver and nanozirconia can be used to modify a surface layer of the material arrangements, such as the denture base, to overcome certain known shortcomings of the modified materials, e.g., typical acrylic resins containing nanosilver and nanozirconia.

Metal-containing methacrylates incorporated into polymeric materials with antimicrobial capacity for biomedical applications, and more particularly for dental purposes, are provided. The incorporation of metal-containing methacrylates such as calcium methacrylate, tin methacrylate, copper methacrylate, silver methacrylate, in combination or alone, for potentializing antimicrobial effect of cements, in particular, to biomaterial compositions including metal containing methacrylates, such as calcium, tin, copper, silver, nickel, titanium and iron methacrylates, in the formulation of biomaterials for applications in human health provides advantages, particularly in dentistry, and allows for expressive antimicrobial activity to dental compositions, so as to be useful in dental prosthesis, operative dentistry, orthodontics, pediatric dentistry, implantodontics, and endodontics.
