  • Patent number: 7872058
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a photopolymerizable dental composition which causes less change in a color tone before and after curing and exhibits excellent photopolymerizability to irradiation in a wide wavelength range, and has also excellent thin-layer surface curability, and to provide a photopolymerization initiator used therefor. Disclosed is a visible light-polymerizable dental composition which does not substantially contain an amine compound as a photosensitizer, comprising 0.01 to 10 parts by weight of a (bis)acylphosphine oxide compound, 0.01 to 10 parts by weight of an ?-diketone compound and 100 parts by weight of a polymerizable monomer.

  • Publication number: 20080008679
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel reactive medical substance having the bone restoration function, comprising a particular methacrylic acid ester, polymer and osteogenic factor. The reactive medical substance of the present invention has a mechanical strength which is increased by a reaction and is used in a living body for a long period of time. The osteoinduction-assistance composition having the bone restoration function of the present invention is characterized in that the composition maintains suitable elasticity, and can be easily formed with scissors or a sharp blade upon use. The reactive medical substance of the present invention comprises a mixture of a methacrylic acid ester, a polymer and a biological absorbing material, and can regenerate a mocosa, form a regenerated epithelium, and stabilize a transplanted piece.
