METHOD FOR PRODUCING LITHIUM SILICATE GLASSES AND LITHIUM SILICATE GLASS CERAMICS

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for producing lithium silicate glass or lithium silicate glass ceramics which contain cerium ions and which are particularly suitable for the production of dental restorations having fluorescence properties which largely correspond to the fluorescence properties of natural teeth. The present invention further relates to lithium silicate glasses and lithium silicate glass ceramics obtainable according to the invention, suitable for use as dental materials, in particular for the production of dental restorations, and glasses suitable for use in the process according to the invention - It relates to a forming composition.
