Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a dental impression material that includes a two part addition curing silicone composition. The disclosed impression material contains a surfactant system composed of a fluorosurfactant and a fatty alcohol ethoxylate. The impression material disclosed herein exhibits improved storage stability than known systems using fluorosurfactants and silicone ether compounds.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a kit of parts comprising part A and part B, part A comprising a polymerizable component having an acid group in the molecule, an initiator, part B comprising an activator, and a film former with a molecular weight of at least 1000.The invention also relates to a composition obtainable by mixing the components contained in the kit of parts and to a process for producing the kit of parts comprising the steps of bringing the components contained in part B of the kit in contact with a surface, drying the surface to form a film.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of remineralizing and desensitizing teeth utilizing the sequential steps of first applying to the teeth a first component that attaches to the teeth and secondly applying to the teeth treated with the first component a second component that attaches to the first component.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a kit of parts for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue comprising: (i) one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative, and (ii) means for chemical treatment of carious dentin tissue. Further, the invention concerns a preparation containing an active, caries-dissolving two-component liquid in the form of a first active, caries-dissolving component and a second component which reduces the aggressiveness of the active component to mucous membranes, a viscosity increasing substance and one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative. The hydrazine derivative labels carious dentin tissue selectively and substantially irreversibly in the presence of healthy dentin tissue, which is useful in the context of caries removal.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process for producing a pharmaceutical, dental and/or cosmetic formulation comprising purified enamel matrix proteins and/or enamel matrix derivative (EMD) proteins, which is heat stable. In particular, the present invention is related to a process for producing stable formulations of enamel matrix proteins and/or enamel matrix derivative (EMD) proteins, wherein said proteins and/or derivatives are solved in a low pH formulation before being subjected to a heat-treatment step.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a solid composition comprising: a calcium silicate powder, a set accelerator in the form of a powder, a reinforcing filler in a solid form, a radio-opacifying agent in a solid form, at least one complementary ingredient selected from solid fibers or solid porous fillers, optionally a water-reducing agent in a solid form, and optionally solid pigments. The present invention also relates to a kit of parts for the preparation of a composition suitable for use in dentistry comprising in a first container a solid phase including the solid composition according to the invention, and in a second container an aqueous phase. The present invention also relates to a kit of parts for the preparation of a composition suitable for use in dentistry comprising a container, said container comprising at least two cells, the first cell comprising a solid phase including the solid composition of the invention and the second cell comprising an aqueous phase. The present invention also relates to a method for preparing a dental cement, including mixing the solid composition of the invention with an aqueous phase and to resulting dental cement.
Abstract:
The present application provides dental fillers, and methods of making and using dental fillers that include a treated surface that includes phosphorus and a divalent cation. Dental compositions including such dental fillers can be useful for delivering ions to the oral environment.
