Abstract

The invention relates to a radically polymerizable dental material having photochromic properties, which contains at least one compound of formula (I) and optionally radically polymerizable monomers, an initiator for radical polymerization and other components.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A radically polymerizable dental material comprising at least one compound of Formula (I),

in which the variables have the following meanings:
X, Y in each case are S;
R 1 ,R 2 in each case are methyl;
R 5 ;R 6 together form a —(CH 2 ) n — group, wherein n is 3 and wherein in the —(CH 2 )— group one or more H atoms can be replaced by F;
R 7 ,R 9 independently of each other in each case are H or a C 1 -C 3 alkyl radical;
R 8 , R 10 independently of each other in each case are a C 1 -C 6 alkyl radical, which can be interrupted by O or —O—C(═O)—NH— and which carries a terminal radically polymerizable group, wherein the polymerizable group is selected from vinyl, styryl, acrylate, methacrylate, acrylamide, N-alkylacrylamide, and methacrylamide, and
at least one radically polymerizable monomer and at least one initiator for radical polymerization.

2. The dental material according to claim 1 , in which the variables of Formula I have the following meanings:
X, Y in each case are S;
R 1 ,R 2 in each case are methyl;
R 5 ;R 6 together form a —(CH 2 ) n — group, wherein n is 3 and wherein all H atoms are replaced by F;
R 7 ,R 9 independently of each other in each case are H or a C 1 -C 3 alkyl radical;
R 8 ,R 10 independently of each other in each case are a C 1 -C 6 alkyl radical, which can be interrupted by O or —O—C(═O)—NH— and which carries a terminal methacrylate group.

3. The dental material according to claim 1 , wherein the at least one radically polymerizable monomer is a mono- or polyfunctional (meth)acrylic acid derivative, and wherein the at least one initiator for the radical polymerization is a photoinitiator.

4. The dental material according to claim 1 , which additionally comprises at least one particulate filler.

5. The dental material according to claim 1 for intraoral use to restore damaged teeth.

6. The dental material according to claim 5 for therapeutic use as dental cement, dental filling composite, dental adhesive or veneering material.

7. A photochromic dental material comprising a compound of Formula I, as defined in claim 1 .

8. The dental material according to claim 1 , which comprises
a) 0.01 to 1.0 wt.-% of the at least one compound of general formula I,
b) 0.1 to 3.0 wt.-% of the at least one initiator,
c) 5 to 50 wt.-% of the at least one radically polymerizable monomer, and optionally
d) 0 to 80 wt.-% filler(s), and optionally
e) 0 to 70 wt.-% solvent,
in each case relative to the total mass of the dental material.

9. The dental material according to claim 1 for use as dental cement or dental filling composite, which comprises
a) 0.01 to 1.0 wt.-% of the at least one compound of general formula I,
b) 0.1 to 3.0 wt.-% of the at least one initiator,
c) 5 to 40 wt.-% of the at least one radically polymerizable monomer,
d) 30 to 80 wt.-% filler(s),
in each case relative to the total mass of the dental material.

10. The dental material according to claim 1 for use as dental adhesive or coating material, which comprises
a) 0.001 to 3.0 wt.-% of the at least one compound of general formula I,
b) 0.1 to 3.0 wt.-% of the at least one initiator,
c) 5 to 60 wt.-% of the at least one radically polymerizable monomer,
d) 0 to 20 wt.-% filler(s),
e) 0 to 60 wt.-% solvents, wherein the solvents comprise water and/or ethanol,
in each case relative to the total mass of the dental material.

11. The dental material according to claim 1 for use as dental adhesive or coating material, which comprises
a) 0.01 to 1.0 wt.-% of the at least one compound of general formula I,
b) 0.1 to 3.0 wt.-% of the at least one initiator,
c) 5 to 50 wt.-% of the at least one radically polymerizable monomer,
d) 0 to 20 wt.-% filler(s),
e) 0 to 50 wt.-% solvents, wherein the solvents comprise water and/or ethanol,
in each case relative to the total mass of the dental material.
