What is dental lithium disilicate material?

Dental lithium disilicate material is an all-porcelain denture porcelain piece made of lithium disilicate glass ceramic material, which is mainly used to repair missing teeth. The following is a detailed explanation of dental lithium disilicate materials:

First, material characteristics

High light transmittance: Dental lithium disilicate material has good light transmittance and can match with natural teeth, making the repaired teeth look more natural.

Wear resistance: The material has high hardness and wear resistance, which can maintain a long service life and reduce repair failure due to wear.

Biocompatibility: Dental lithium disilicate material has good biocompatibility with oral tissues, does not cause allergies or other adverse reactions, and ensures the safety and stability of the prosthesis.

Stability: The material has good stability and is not prone to discoloration or deformation, ensuring the aesthetics and functionality of the restoration.

Easy to process: Dental lithium disilicate materials are easy to process into various shapes, which can meet the repair needs of different patients.

Second, composition

Dental lithium disilicate material is mainly composed of lithium disilicate glass ceramic material, which is composed of silicon oxide, alumina, zirconia and other components. These components are treated by special processes to form lithium disilicate ceramic materials with excellent properties.

Third, application field

Dental lithium disilicate material has a wide range of applications in the dental field, mainly used in the production of dental crowns, Bridges, inlays, onlays and veneers and other restorations. These restorations can not only withstand normal bite force, but also restore the aesthetic and layering of the teeth, improving the oral health and quality of life of patients.

Fourth, market status and development trend

Market status: At present, dental lithium disilicate materials occupy an important position in the global dental market. With the improvement of people's attention to oral health and the continuous progress of dental repair technology, the market demand for dental lithium disilicate materials continues to grow.

Development trend: In the future, dental lithium disilicate materials will continue to develop in the direction of high strength, high aesthetics and high biocompatibility. At the same time, with the popularization and application of digital dental technology, the processing and production of dental lithium disilicate materials will be more accurate and efficient, and provide patients with better repair services.

Fifth, summary

Dental lithium disilicate material is a kind of multi-functional dental material with excellent properties and has a wide application prospect in the field of dental restoration. With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous expansion of the market, dental lithium disilicate materials will continue to provide patients with more high-quality repair services.
