摘要:
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.
摘要:
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.
摘要:
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.
摘要:
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.
摘要:
Dental compositions and methods of treating an oral surface are described. The dental compositions comprise at least one biphenyl di(meth)acrylate monomer.
摘要:
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).
摘要:
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.
