The objective of the preliminary work reported here was to prepare an improved formulation of intrinsically colored microcrystalline glass-ceramic. Applications could include "megafillers" for direct composite restorations, precision castings, and CAD-CAM prostheses. The experimental glass-ceramic reported here contained SiO2 56.9, AI2O3 19, LiO2 7, ZnO 6, MgO 5, TiO22, ZrO22, P2O52, and CeO20.1 mole%. The batch materials were melted and stirred at 1,610 degrees C for 2 h, quenched in water and also formed into a block of a clear, slightly yellow glass. To identify the crystalline phases that developed during transformation of the glass to the ceramic, x-ray diffraction was used on ten aliquots taken during 15 h of stepwise heating from 750 to 1050 degrees C. With heating, the yellow color deepened to a very translucent "dark yellow" dental shade, then lightened with gradually increasing opacity during formation of secondary crystalline phases. X-ray opacity was approximately equivalent to that of dental enamel. The refractive index of the glass, nD1.554, increased during nucleation and growth of the crystalline phases to a maximum of 1.586. Intrinsic coloration of these glass-ceramic materials can be controlled by varying the heat treatment and/or composition to match typical dental shades.

The glass-ceramic mainly containing fluorophlogopite is one of widely used dental ceramics. In the K2O-CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2-F system, a new-type glass-ceramic containing fluorophlogopite Ca-mica has been synthesized. Its crystalline was studied by XRD and EDS. The fluorophlogopite whose formula postulated K(1 - X )Ca( X/2)Mg(3)AlSi(3)O(10)F(2) was its main crystalline. The microstructure of the glass-ceramic displayed typical machinable microstructure with lath like crystals isolated and interlocking with different aspect ratio. The material also showed better bending strength (228.11 +/- 7.55 MPa). It took less than 12 minutes to fabricate a whole crown by dental CAD/CAM system with the glass-ceramic.
