Patent ID: 6908953

Claim:
A method for making a dental composition, comprising the steps of: providing a polymerizable storable one-component dental composition comprising (a) 3 to 80 wt. % of an epoxide or a mixture of epoxides of the general formula: suitable for a dental composition, in which, Z denotes an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic radical having 1 to 22 carbon atoms or a combination of these radicals, wherein one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by O, C═O, —O(C═O)—, SiR 2 and/or NR, wherein at least one carbon atom must be replaced by SiR 2 , and wherein R is an aliphatic radical having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, wherein one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by O, C═O and/or —O(C═O)—, A denotes an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic radical having 1 to 18 carbon atoms or a combination of these radicals, wherein one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by O, C═O, —O(C═O)—, SiR 2 and/or NR, wherein R is an aliphatic radical having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, in which one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by O, C═O and/or —O(C═O)—, B 1 , B 2 , D and E independently of one another denote a hydrogen atom or an aliphatic radical having 1 to 9 carbon atoms, wherein one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by O, C═O, —O(C═O)—, SiR 2 and/or NR, wherein R is an aliphatic radical having 1 to 7 carbon atoms, in which one or more carbon atoms can be replaced by O, C═O and/or —O(C═O)—, n denotes 2-7, m denotes 1-10, p denotes 1-5, and q denotes 1-5 (b) 0 to 80 wt. % of an epoxide or a mixture of epoxides which differ from (a), (c) 3 to 85 wt. % of dental fillers, (d) 0.01 to 25 wt. % of initiators and retardants or accelerators, (e) 0 to 25 wt. % of auxiliaries, the percentage data in each case being based on the total weight of the composition, and curing the polymerizable storable one-component dental composition by irradiating the composition by UV or visible light.
