Abstract: The present invention relates to a ceramic mixture which is suitable for producing moulded articles, preferably dental moulded articles, and to methods for producing the ceramic mixture. The invention also relates to the use of a ceramic mixture for producing moulded articles, preferably dental moulded articles, in particular dental restorations, such as an inlay, onlay, veneer, crown, bracket, bridge, framework, abutment or implant. The invention also relates to methods for producing a moulded article, preferably a dental moulded article comprising applying a ceramic mixture to a carrier or to a positive model, and solidifying the moulded articles thus obtained by gel formation, preferably by means of a standard 3D printer capable of processing paste-like materials. The gel-like moulded article thus obtained can be worked in the gel-like and/or dried state.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel multi-layered zirconia dental blank comprising at least two reverse layers. Further, the invention relates to a process for the preparation of such a multi-layered zirconia dental blank. The invention also relates to the use of such a multi-layered zirconia dental blank for the production of a dental article. Preferred dental articles are artificial teeth, inlays, onlays, bridges, crowns, veneers, facings, crown frameworks, bridged frameworks, implants, abutments, copings or orthodontic appliances. Moreover, the invention relates to a process for producing a dental article out of such a multi-layered zirconia dental blank.
