[0001] Dental layered prostheses and their manufacture
[0002] a layered dental prosthesis
[0003] The invention relates to a dental layered prosthesis comprising at least one inner tooth region and at least one tooth layer partially or completely surrounding the inner tooth region, and optionally at least one neck layer, as well as a method for its manufacture and a computer program product for manufacturing the prosthesis.A preferred dental layered prosthesis comprises at least one first component, in particular a first layered and / or layered available first component, selected from the at least one inner tooth region, which is at least one tooth layer, and optionally at least one cervical layer, each independently available in a material-building process, and at least one remaining component, in particular a remaining component with a homogeneous matrix, in particular a matrix not layered and / or layered available, of the first component available in a primary forming process.
[0004] Typically, prefabricated dental prostheses are cured in industrial manufacturing processes using thermal polymerization of the entire prosthesis in a production mold. These prostheses are usually methacrylates with low to medium levels of inorganic fillers. Manual fabrication of multi-layered prostheses is possible with methacrylates. Additive or subtractive fabrication of dental prostheses in dental laboratories, which, due to the manufacturing process, are made from a single material, is also known.
[0005] However, there is a need to be able to produce dental prostheses from composite-like materials that have improved mechanical properties compared to the usual methacrylate-containing compositions.
[0006] DE 102 49 518B3 discloses the production of artificial teeth with an outer cutting layer and an underlying dentin layer with an intermediate fluorescent material layer. The artificial teeth are formed almost exclusively from a polymer comprising methacrylates, such as PMMA. DE 102006026776 A1 discloses a typical application of the artificial teeth in a dental prosthesis and the production of the gingival area of the prosthesis using 3D printing from denture resin. DE 1017 105044 B9 discloses a milling process for artificial teeth, such as CNC milling on a CAM machine, to produce the connection geometry for the artificial teeth on the cervical to radicular side of the teeth, so that they can be precisely adapted to a denture base, an abutment, or an implant connection geometry. However, due to the nature of this milling process, increased breakage of the polymer artificial tooth components can occur.In the past, attempts were also made to mechanically stabilize the mechanical stability of tooth-shaped components by inserting foils, as described in DE 10 2014 109 098 A1, in order to counteract the increased mechanical loads on implant-supported dentures and bridges caused by malloading.
[0007] Due to increasingly faster milling production processes and / or the manufacture of dental prostheses in so-called "chair-side" applications, which take place in a less reproducible environment, especially due to changing users, there is a need to further increase the mechanical properties of the artificial tooth shapes in order to meet the increased demands of milling processing and at the same time the requirements for significantly longer durability, even under incorrect stress on the teeth.
[0008] One object of the invention was therefore to provide a method and suitable materials that would allow for the production of a multi-layered dental prosthesis that is cost-effective and simultaneously meets increased mechanical requirements. Furthermore, the object was to provide a method for the industrial production of multi-layered dental prostheses that nevertheless allows for a high degree of flexibility with regard to the individualization of each prosthesis, such as artificial tooth shapes. Finally, the object was to adapt the mechanical properties of the prostheses to those of previously known denture resins and to those of crowns produced from milled parts using material removal, which are manufactured from prefabricated prostheses or blanks using milling.
[0009] The object of the invention could be achieved by a dental layered prosthesis according to claim 1 and by a method according to claim 13. Furthermore, the objects could be achieved by an intermediate product of the dental layered prosthesis according to claim 17 and a multi-part casting mold according to claim 18, the computer program product according to claim 19, the virtual dental layered prosthesis according to claim 20, and the use according to claim 21.

[0113] The inventive method allows for the creation of particularly natural-looking teeth, especially artificial teeth. It also advantageously allows for a more realistic reproduction of the transition between the crown and root of the tooth, i.e., the neck of the tooth. This is because the neck of the tooth does not run as a straight line, but rather in a garland-like shape, extending furthest towards the crown at the point of contact with the adjacent tooth (approximal). This is more pronounced in the front teeth (incisors and canines) than in the molars.

[0216] Measurement methods:
[0217] ISO 20795-1 for determining the Young's modulus. The test specimens are milled from the received samples using CAD / CAM according to the specifications of ISO 20795-1 and tested.
[0218] ISO 20795-2: 2013: Test specimens according to ISO 20795-2 (50 m) are printed with this composition on a 3D precision printer with a wavelength of 405 nm (Cara Print 4.0) for subsequent testing. After printing, the specimens are rinsed with isopropanol and subjected to a post-treatment process. This is carried out by exposing both sides for 3 to 5 minutes each or, according to the manufacturer's instructions, in a HiLite Power 3D, 200 W laboratory light lamp (Külzer GmbH). Properties of the inventive mixture for model materials, tested according to DIN EN ISO 20795-2 2013 (flexural strength, section 7.5) or based on this standard. The determination of the stress intensity K (crack strength) is carried out according to section 8.4.

Each test specimen is measured over an area of 2 x 8 mm (resolution: 100 points / mm, z-axis resolution: 0.1 pm) in such a way that approximately 1 mm of unablated area is visible at both the front and back. The laser determines the surface properties of the abraded area: average depth across the entire width in pm, volume loss in mm. 3 Three-media abrasion machine (DMA): SD Mechatronik GmbH, test parameters: speed of sample wheel: 180 U / rnin, speed of antagonist: 240 U / rnin, test duration: 2 x 300,000 cycles, mixture: 110 g poppy seeds: 205 g water; poppy seeds: blue poppy seeds, dried for 24 h at 130°C (convection air)
