An indicator is useful for detecting pressure points on a denture. The indicator is made of a composition that easily adheres to oral mucosa, has a proper viscosity in an oral cavity environment, can be properly spread between an oral mucosa surface and a denture base, and easily specifies an affected part. The composition includes a fatty acid ester having a melting point of 30 to 50&#xb0; C., a water-soluble high polymer, and a metal oxide. Preferably, the fatty acid is 40 to 95% by weight of the composition, the water-soluble high polymer is 1 to 59% by weight of the composition, and the metal oxide is 0.1 to 50% by weight of the composition.

Composition for indicator with which used for detecting pressure points on denture

To provide a dental hydraulic temporary sealing material composition setting faster than conventional composition, excellent adhesiveness with cavity, and extremely good operativity of filling in an oral cavity, the dental hydraulic temporary sealing material composition includes calcium sulfate, a vinyl acetate resin, an inorganic filler, alcohols having a boiling point of 110&#xb0; C. or more, and a nonionic surfactant, whereby water on a cavity can adhere, without being repelled, to a paste surface due to hydrophilic effect between an organic solvent having proper hydrophilicity and the nonionic surfactant, the water can permeate and diffuse rapidly and stably through the inside of the paste by the hydrophilic effect so as to set faster than conventional composition, and since the hydrophilic effect is effective for adhesiveness with cavity, filling property in an oral cavity becomes extremely good.

Dental hydraulic temporary sealing material composition

To provide a dual curing type composite resin for core build-up having improved curing property by chemical polymerization with improved mechanical strength of a cured body under the condition of no light irradiation and with a shortened setting time, the composite resin is composed of a first component including a (meth)acrylate polymerizable resin and an organic peroxide, and a second component including (meth)acrylate polymerizable resin and a reducing agent, a photopolymerizaton initiator and a filler are included in the first component and/or the second component, and oxide powder of a Group II element in the periodic table having an average particle diameter of 1 &#x3bc;m or less is blended in the first component and/or the second component.

Dental composite resin for core build-up

To provide a dental root canal-filling composition which is generally formed in a point shape, has high strength, is properly deformed so as to afford easy operativity for filling in a root canal, has improved wetting and adhering properties with a root canal-filling sealer and is less deteriored by sterilization or chemical disinfection, the dental root canal-filling composition comprises one or more kinds of polyolefin resins selected from the group of polyethylene, polypropylene, and a copolymer of polyethylene and polypropylene, a styrene block copolymer, one or more kinds of thermoplastic resins selected from the group of ester gum, rosin, an alicyclic saturated hydrocarbon resin, a terpene resin, and an aliphatic petroleum resin, and one or more kinds of inorganic fillers selected from the group of zinc oxide, barium sulfate, zirconium oxide, titanium oxide, ytterbium fluoride, a barium glass, and an aluminosilicate glass.

Dental root canal-filling composition

A resin composition for denture is provided, which does not require operations for weighing, and mixing during the use; is free from involving of air bubbles; and when used for preparation of a denture base, is free from a reduction in physical properties and staining or discoloration with a lapse of time. Further, a completed denture has a high elastic energy value, is superior in impact resistance, and when applied with an impact or a stress as in the case of dropping, is not readily broken. The resin composition for denture base is in a one-paste state and is constructed by (a) a polymerizable monomer and/or oligomer having a modulus of elasticity at polymerization of 0.25 to 3.00 GPa, (b) an organic filler and/or an organic-inorganic composite filler having a modulus of elasticity of 0.25 to 3.00 GPa, and (c) a polymerization initiator made of a heat polymerization type polymerization initiator and/or a photopolymerization type polymerization initiator, and optionally, (d) an inorganic filler.
