  • Publication number: 20110039974
    Abstract: A composite material for producing dental prostheses with a matrix comprising a thermoplastic (A) contains reinforcing fibers (B) and at least one filler (C). The filler (C) has a Mohs hardness that is at most as great as the Mohs hardness of the reinforcing fibers (B).

  • Publication number: 20090155736
    Abstract: In order to produce dental molded parts for a dental prosthesis, a shaping model of the desired dental molded part is made, for example, from wax. The model is embedded in a heat-resistant molding compound. The molding compound is subsequently hardened, and the wax model is melted in order to form a mold cavity that corresponds to the negative of the desired dental molded part. The thermoplastic heated to the processing temperature is introduced with pressure into the formed mold cavity in the molding compound, and the thermoplastic, which forms the desired dental molded part, is removed from the mold once the molding compound is solidified. The molding compound has a temperature of at least 150° C. at the point in time at which the thermoplastic is introduced.

  • Patent number: 7401526
    Abstract: The invention relates to a force measuring transducer with an oscillator (1) with an inductor (2) formed by a primary winding and a gauge (11) with a secondary winding (30) which is connected electroconductively to the gauge (11) and which is disposed in transformer coupling with the inductor (2) of the oscillator (1). Action of a force on the gauge (11) changes the impedance of the gauge (11) and the load of the inductively coupled secondary winding (30). An evaluation circuit (14) is used to determine the resulting frequency change of the oscillator (1) which is proportional to the force acting on the gauge (11).
