FREE-RADICALLY POLYMERIZABLE COMPOSITIONS FOR 3D PRINTING OF DENTAL CROWNS, BRIDGES, PROSTHETIC TEETH OR FULL PROSTHESES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240277582 titled 'FREE-RADICALLY POLYMERIZABLE COMPOSITIONS FOR 3D PRINTING OF DENTAL CROWNS, BRIDGES, PROSTHETIC TEETH OR FULL PROSTHESES

The present invention pertains to polymerizable compositions for 3D printing of dental prostheses with excellent mechanical properties and sedimentation stability.

  • Filler combination in the compositions enhances mechanical properties.
  • Compositions are suitable for printing dental crowns, bridges, prosthetic teeth, and full prostheses.
  • Optimal sedimentation stability ensures accurate printing results.
  • The technology is ideal for dental applications requiring high precision and durability.
  • The compositions can be customized for specific patient needs and preferences.

Potential Applications: - Dental laboratories - Prosthodontic clinics - Dental schools for training purposes

Problems Solved: - Improving the mechanical properties of 3D printed dental prostheses - Ensuring stability during the printing process - Enhancing the overall quality and longevity of dental restorations

Benefits: - Enhanced durability and strength of dental prostheses - Customizable compositions for individual patient requirements - Increased efficiency in the production of dental restorations

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced 3D Printing Compositions for Dental Prostheses This technology can revolutionize the dental industry by providing high-quality, customizable solutions for dental prostheses. It can lead to improved patient outcomes and increased efficiency in dental laboratories and clinics.

Questions about 3D Printing Compositions for Dental Prostheses: 1. How do these compositions compare to traditional materials used in dental prosthetics? These compositions offer superior mechanical properties and customization options compared to traditional materials, leading to more durable and precise dental prostheses.

2. What are the potential cost implications of using these advanced compositions in dental practices? The initial investment in 3D printing technology and materials may be higher, but the long-term benefits of improved quality, efficiency, and patient satisfaction can outweigh the costs.


Original Abstract Submitted

the present invention relates to free-radically polymerizable compositions for 3d printing of dental crowns, bridges, prosthetic teeth or full prostheses which on account of their filler combination feature very good mechanical properties and optimal sedimentation stability.
