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 compression molded tooth used for practicing dental cutting treatment of the present invention comprises a composition containing a powder or powders of saccharide, polysaccharide, protein, and/or glycoprotein each having a particle size of 1 to 100 μm.
Abstract:
A dental restoration putty and method of fabricating and allying the dental restoration is used to repair/replace a damaged or missing section of an individual's tooth or other area of dentition. The putty that is produced and utilized is an admixture of a colorant with a base material. The colorant of the putty functions to alter the color/appearance of a dental restoration to accurately match the color of an individual's existing tooth or teeth.
Abstract:
A method for manufacturing an implant material includes preparing a base material for implant, removing moisture from a chamber in which the base material is placed, and introducing material gas as a carbon source and a silicon source into the chamber after the removal of the moisture to form a carbon thin film containing a C—C component in which carbon atoms are bonded, and a SiC component in which carbon and silicon atoms are bonded on a surface of the base material by ionized deposition.

Abstract:
A semi-worked piece of composite material for producing artefacts/devices for dental and/or odontoiatric use such as posts and/or stumps and/or dental crowns for example, comprises a polymeric matrix and a multiplicity of mechanically resistant fibres nested in the polymeric matrix; in this semi-worked piece the resistant fibres are arranged in a predetermined number of reinforcing layers that are substantially planar and are disposed in mutually overlapped relationship.
Abstract:
An augmented synthetic resin is provided. That resin includes carbon nanotubes dispersed in a polymethylmethacrylate matrix. The method of preparing this synthetic resin includes the mixing and disaggregating of the carbon nanotubes.
Abstract:
There are disclosed amphoteric nano-sized metal oxide particles functionalized with silyl esters of a phosphonate and composites thereof with an acrylate-based monomer, including liquid crystal monomers photopolymerizable at ambient temperature. Also disclosed are the method making such functionalized particular by reacting a metal oxide with a silyl ester of a phosphonate in the presence of a non-aqueous solvent and in an inert atmosphere and the method of making the composites wherein the functionalized particles are admixed with an acrylate-based matrix monomer, including liquid crystal monomers photopolymerizable at ambient temperature. Further disclosed is the method of dental repair wherein the composites are applied to a tooth and photopolymerized.
Abstract:
A dental retrograde-filling material process, comprising the steps of: taking 3:1 mole ratio of a calcium oxide and a silicon dioxide mixes a 1null5 w.t. % cobalt oxide at 1200null1800 degree Celsius temperature to get a A-product including a tricalcium silicate, a dicalcium silicate and a containing cobalt composition; taking 3:1 mole ratio of a calcium oxide and an aluminum oxide at 1200null1800 degree Celsius temperature reacts a B-product including a tricalcium aluminate; taking 4:1:1 mole ratio of a calcium oxide, an aluminum oxide and a ferric oxide at 1200null1800 degree Celsius temperature reacts a C-product including a calcium alminoferrite; and mixing the A-product, B-product and C-product are the retrograde-filling material. The dental retrograde-filling material mixes of taking 8:1:1 mole ratio of said tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate and containing cobalt composition, tricalcium aluminate and calcium alminoferrite.
