Abstract: Dental material based on polymerizable (for example ethylenically unsaturated) monomers, epoxides, ormocers, liquid crystal monomers, oxethanes, spiro-orthoesters or spiro-carbonates as binders, a catalyst for cold, hot and/or photo-polymerization, and fillers, and a process for its preparation. Porous glass ceramics, a process for their preparation and uses thereof are also described. Dental materials according to the invention are suitable as alternative materials to the use of amalgam fillings.

Abstract: Dental materials based on cationically polymerizable monomers as binders, a polymerization initiator, and based on the dental material, 1-95 wt % of at least one inorganic filler, wherein the binder contains monomers of formula (I): 1

The polymerisable dental material has variably adjustable transparency, good polishability, high strength and the capacity to release and absorb ions into and from a biological environment. Also described is a process for using the mixed apatites A1), A2) and/or A3) in polymerisable dental materials.
