Abstract:
A dental mill blank having a multi-layer structure has been required to improve the reproducibility of a color tone of the natural tooth in a dental crown restoration cut by CAD/CAM technique. Especially, a reproduction of the color tone of a cavity or a groove is required in a dental crown form of the molar tooth. The present dental mill blank has three or more layers wherein a color of a 30% position layer which includes a 30% position which is a position spaced from a surface of the dental mill blank of a W layer-side by 30% satisfies a specified relational expression, and a contrast ratio of the 30% position layer is within a range of the contrast ratio of the D layer×(0.70 to 1.00).
