  • Patent number: 7600398
    Abstract: A method for making artificial tooth bridges including a ceramic densely sintered high strength individual core veneered with porcelain using powder metallurgical methods. The individual densely sintered bridge parts are joined together to a bridge core by a particle reinforced glass. Since only the glass material wets the surface of the densely sintered parts, the glass is the binding material that holds the core together and the particles function to only increase the strength of the bulk glass material.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20060174653
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for making artificial tooth bridges consisting of a ceramic densely sintered high strength individual core veneered with Porcelain using powder metallurgical methods. According to the method the individual densely sintered bridge parts are joined together to a bridge core by a particle reinforced glass. Since only the glass material wets the surface of the densely sintered parts, the glass is the binding material that holds the core together and the particles function to only increase the strength (i.e. Kc value) of the bulk glass material.
