Abstract:
Kalsilite glass–ceramic composites have been
prepared by a mechanochemical synthesis process for
dental veneering application. The aim of the present study
is to prepare bioactive kalsilite composite material for
application in tissue attachment and sealing of the marginal
gap between fixed prosthesis and tooth. Mechanochemical
synthesis is used for the preparation of microfine kalsilite
glass–ceramic. Low temperature frit and bioglass have
been prepared using the traditional quench method. Thermal, microstructural and bioactive properties of the composite material have been examined. The feasibility of the
kalsilite to be coated on the base commercial opaque as
well as the bioactive behavior of the coated specimen has
been confirmed. This study indicates that the prepared
kalsilite-based composites show similar structural, morphological and bioactive behavior to that of commercial
VITA VMK95 Dentin 1M2
