Abstract

Fillers containing silica-zirconia nanoclusters are disclosed. The fillers may be prepared by mixing a sol of silica nanoparticles with a sol of preformed, crystalline nanozirconia particles. The fillers provide desirable optical properties, such as opalescence, and are useful in dental compositions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to nanoparticle fillers for composites, including dental composites. More particularly, the present invention relates to filler materials having silica-zirconia nanoclusters that provide desirable optical properties, such as opalescence, for use in dental compositions. Background technique [0002] Over the past few decades, dentists and dental patients have increasingly demanded more aesthetically pleasing dental restorations. The dental industry's increasing focus on aesthetic dentistry has led to the development of dental restoration compositions that more closely mimic the appearance of natural teeth. For example, composite resin materials have been developed that can be used to replace tooth-colored fillings such as metal amalgam fillings to provide more natural-looking dental restorations. In recent years, highly aesthetic composites containing silica and / or zirconia nanofillers have become available with shade sys...
