Applications of Dental Glass
Composites, glass ionomer cements, and compomers are the materials of choice in modern dental restoration. Glass is a key ingredient in these fillings as it enhances esthetics and durability. In addition, 3D printing resins, mill blanks, and glass-ceramics are becoming increasingly commonplace.
Dental composites
SCHOTT® DentalGlass is used for dental glass powder applications as an inorganic filler for dental composites, compomers, and glass ionomer cements.
Novel applications beyond composites
In addition to traditional dental composites, there's an increased amount of interest in CAD-CAM materials, such as 3D printing resins and mill blanks. SCHOTT is capable of supporting these cutting-edge technologies.
