  • Process for the fabrication of dental restorations
    Patent number: 10182895
    Abstract: Dental restorations are created by preparing a hydrocolloid mold for such dental appliances as crowns and bridges. A slurry of zirconia powder and 3-O-acryloyl-D-glucose is prepared. The slurry is gelcast in the hydrocolloid mold with polymerization of the 3-O-acryloyl-D-glucose to a green body. The green body is dried and machined to the form of the dental restoration. The polymerized 3-O-acryloyl-D-glucose is then burned from the machined green body. The remaining zirconia body in the form of the dental restoration is then sintered to form the finished device.

  • Tooth model occlusion testing device
    Patent number: 6869281
    Abstract: A tooth model occlusion testing device comprises an upper jaw and a lower jaw that pivotally connect to each other. Two tooth model bases are respectively received in the upper and lower jaws, and are provided with a plurality of perforations to insert a tooth model. The upper and lower jaws are thereby capable of turning to an open and occluding position to evaluate the alignment of the upper and lower parts of the tooth model in the occluding position.
