Abstract:
In order to provide a material for forming a dental prosthesis which does not require further heat treatment after machining and can improve cutting ability even after obtaining necessary strength, the material for a dental prosthesis comprises 60.0 mass % or more and 80.0 mass % or less of SiO2, 10.0 mass % or more and 20.0 mass % or less of Li2O, and 5.1 mass % or more and 10.0 mass % or less of Al2O3.
Abstract:
Provided is a block body that makes it possible to quickly produce a dental prosthesis with a good accuracy. A material of the block body including SiO2 in an amount of 60.0 mass % to 80.0 mass %, Li2O in an amount of 10.0 mass % to 20.0 mass %, Al2O3 in an amount of 5.1 mass % to 10.0 mass %, wherein the block body is formed in a column, and a main crystalline phase of the block body is lithium disilicate.
Abstract:
Provided is a method for quickly producing a dental prosthesis with a good accuracy.The method for producing a dental prosthesis including: a melting step of melting a material including no less than 60.0 mass % and no more than 80.0 mass % of SiO2, no less than 10.0 mass % and no more than 20.0 mass % of Li2O, and no less than 5.1 mass % and no more than 10.0 mass % of Al2O3; a glass blank production step of cooling to solidify the molten material to obtain a glass blank; a lithium disilicate blank production step of heating the glass blank to obtain a lithium disilicate blank whose main crystalline phase is lithium disilicate; and a processing step of processing the lithium disilicate by machining.
