Abstract:
A dental article includes an external layer formed of a self-supporting hardenable preformed material having a dental article shape defined by an external layer surface. The external layer defines an interior volume. An interior material is disposed within the interior volume. The interior material is different than the external hardenable preformed material and the interior material has a yield stress value of 100 dyn/cm2 or greater.
Abstract translation:牙科用品包括由具有由外层表面限定的牙科物品形状的自支撑可硬化预成型材料形成的外层。 外层定义内部体积。 内部材料设置在内部容积内。 内部材料与外部可硬化预成型材料不同,内部材料的屈服应力值为100dyn / cm 2以上。
Abstract:
A solid dental crown and methods of using the solid dental crown are disclosed. The solid dental crown includes, a self-supporting solid hardenable preformed dental crown having an external crown shape defined by an external crown surface. The external crown surface defines a crown volume that is substantially filled with a hardenable composition. The hardenable composition has sufficient malleability so that the solid preformed dental crown can be pressed onto a prepared tooth surface to form a recess in the solid preformed dental crown defined by a recess surface that is complimentary to the prepared tooth surface.
Abstract:
A method of using hardenable dental articles. The method can include placing a film (30) onto a dental structure (40) to cover at least a portion of the dental structure (40); providing a hardenable dental article (10); and applying the hardenable dental article (10) to the dental structure (40) covered by the film (30).
Abstract:
Curable dental compositions, dental articles, and methods of making or using such compositions or articles are described. In one embodiment, the curable dental restoration composition comprises a resin system comprising a free-radically polymerizable semi-crystalline resin having a molecular weight no greater than 2000 g/mole and at least 50 wt-% of nanocluster filler.
Abstract:
Protected hardenable dental article comprising a hardenable dental article comprising a base and at least one outer surface extending from the base, wherein at least the base and the at least one outer surface of the hardenable dental article comprise a hardenable dental material; and a multi-layer polymeric film in contact with at least a portion of the at least one outer surface; wherein the multi-layer polymeric film comprises at least two dissimilar polymers in separate layers; kits including the protected hardenable dental article; and methods of making hardenable dental articles are disclosed.
Abstract:
Dental compositions and methods of treating an oral surface are described. The dental compositions comprise at least one biphenyl di(meth)acrylate monomer.
Abstract:
The present application is directed to a method of using a hardenable dental article. The method can include providing the hardenable dental article; applying the hardenable dental article to a dental structure; customizing the shape of the hardenable dental article; and at least partially curing the hardenable dental article.
Abstract:
Provided are abrasive assemblies and related methods that combine a head portion including an integral abrasive member and a drive portion including a resilient cylindrical mandrel. The abrasive member has a receptacle that is complemental to a working end of the mandrel when both members are relaxed. As the abrasive member engages to, or disengages from, the mandrel, the receptacle resiliently expands and the working end of the mandrel resiliently compresses, each in cooperation with the other. Optionally, the abrasive member is maintained in compression in both directions parallel and perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the mandrel. Advantageously, these assemblies provide for superior retention and slip resistance, ease-of-use, and high manufacturing tolerances.
Abstract:
Dental compositions and biphenyl di(meth)acrylate monomers are described. The dental compositions comprise at least one biphenyl di(meth)acrylate monomer comprising two aromatic rings connected with a C-C bond wherein the rings each comprise a substituent comprising a urethane moiety and a (meth)acrylate end group.
