›CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202210954994.5, filed on Aug. 10, 2022, the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.

›TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the technical field of denture material, and in particular, to a composite resin denture porcelain block, a preparation method thereof and a composite resin denture.

›BACKGROUND

Dentures are what people often call “false teeth”. In medicine, it is a general term for restorations made after the upper and lower teeth are partially or completely missing. There are two types of dentures: removable and fixed. Fixed dentures cannot be removed and worn by the patient themselves, while removable dentures can be easily removed and worn by the patient.

Dentures are made of various materials, such as zirconia porcelain blocks and glass ceramics. Zirconia ceramic blocks are highly brittle, difficult to cut and difficult to grind precisely. Both zirconia ceramic blocks and glass ceramics require final sintering, which is a complex process and low processing efficiency.

›SUMMARY

The objective of the present application is to provide a composite resin denture porcelain block, a preparation method thereof and a composite resin denture with low brittleness, excellent cutting and processing performance, precise grinding, no final sintering and great improvement in processing efficiency.

The composite resin denture porcelain block has low brittleness, excellent cutting and processing performance, precise grinding, no final sintering during processing, and great improvement in processing efficiency. Moreover, the elastic modulus of the composite resin denture porcelain block is close to that of natural dentin, and the occlusion is comfortable after the denture is made.

In an embodiment, dimethyl ether dimethyl cellulose ester (UDMA), phenol A-dimethyl condensed glycidyl ester (Bis-GMA) served as the resin matrix to impart plasticity, curing characteristics and strength. Tri-etherified dimethyl cellulose ester (TEGDMA) can dilute monomers and reduce the viscosity of the resin matrix.

›DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS · 2 of 2

The present application also provides a composite resin denture made of the composite resin denture porcelain block as described above.

›EMBODIMENT

According to the formula in Table 1 below, the composite resin denture porcelain block is prepared.

The composite resin denture porcelain block is prepared from Embodiments 1 to 3 of Table 1 above, and the bending strength, elastic modulus, Vickers hardness, and light transmittance of the composite resin denture porcelain block are tested. The test results are shown in Table 2.

Embodiment 3 has the highest resin matrix content, resulting in the highest light transmittance. Due to the low content of inorganic fillers, the physical properties are lower than those of Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2. The resin matrix content of Embodiment 1 is close to that of Embodiment 2, but the content of nano powder in Embodiment 2 is higher, so the performance of Embodiment 2 is better.

It should be noted that the limitations of each step included in the present application, without affecting the implementation of the specific embodiments, are not considered to limit the sequence of steps. The steps written in front can be executed first, later, or even simultaneously. As long as these embodiments can be implemented, it should be considered as falling within the scope of the present application.

The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present application in conjunction with specific optional embodiments, and it cannot be considered that the specific implementation of the present application is limited to these explanations. For those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made, which should be considered as falling within the scope of the present application.
