Abstract: A process for producing an artificial tooth comprising: injection molding polymerizable material into a mold to form an outer external polymeric layer. Then injection molding polymerizable material into the mold to form an inner polymeric layer applied on the first external layer. Then injection molding polymerizable material into the mold to form a solid core applied on the inner external layer.

Abstract: Disclosed is an alloy that is a combination by weight percent of 78 to 84 percent nickel, 11 to 15 percent chromium, 3 to 5 percent vanadium, and 1 to 2 percent beryllium. Any balance of other elements make up less than 7 percent with aluminum, manganese, silicon, tin, lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, gadolinium, molybdenum, niobium, tantalum, tungsten, titanium, iron, boron, and carbon specifically disclosed. The alloy is, in particular, a dental casting alloy or dental veneering alloy, and dental prostheses containing the alloy is a feature of the disclosure.

Abstract: A nickel base casting alloy containing 10 to 25 percent chromium, 3 to 8 percent manganese, 3 to 10 percent niobium, 0 to 3.5 percent aluminum, 0.5 to 2.0 percent beryllium which exhibits lower melting characteristics allowing enhanced compatibility to gypsum bonded investments.
