The present invention provides a dental curable composition exhibiting both excellent light diffusion and excellent transparency, and having high mechanical strength and surface smoothness and gloss after polishing as a cured product as well as good handling properties as a paste. The present invention is a dental curable composition including: a polymerizable monomer (A) having a refractive index of 1.52 to 1.58 after polymerization; inorganic particles (B) having a refractive index of 1.43 to 1.50; and inorganic particles (C) having a refractive index of 1.52 to 1.58. The inorganic particles (B) are aggregates of inorganic fine particles having an average primary particle size of 2 to 50 nm, and the content of the inorganic particles (B) is 0.1 to 10% by weight.

Dental curable composition and composite resin using the same

A composition for dental use containing a polymerizable monomer (a) having an aromatic ring and a hydroxyl group, a polymerizable monomer (b) having an aromatic ring without having any hydroxyl groups, and a polymerizable monomer (c) other than the polymerizable monomers (a) and (b), wherein the composition for dental use contains the polymerizable monomers (a), (b), and (c) in an amount of from 10 to 30% by weight, from 50 to 70% by weight, and from 10 to 30% by weight, respectively, of all the polymerizable monomers. The composition for dental use of the present invention can be suitably used as a product capable of substituting a part or all of a natural tooth in the field of dental therapy.
