Abstract: Certain embodiments relate to a method of producing a dental ceramic product. In certain methods, a green body made of pressed ceramic powder and a binder is subjected to machining, such as milling, before the green body is sintered. The ceramic powder can contain about 2-6% by weight of a binder and the green body can be shaped to a corresponding shape of at least a part of a tooth to be restored.

Abstract: A substrate has or is provided on a surface with a first porosity. A dispersion with low-viscosity liquid is applied to the surface in order to form a ceramic layer with a second porosity having preferably larger and/or more pores than in the first porosity. The liquid has the ability to be sucked by capillary force into the first pore formation and, in a first stage, to retain on the surface material and/or liquid particles which do not penetrate into this first pore formation, and which contribute to the continued construction of the layer.
