Abstract

To provide a dental glass ionomer cement composition having excellent adhesion strength to a metallic prosthesis. A dental glass ionomer cement composition includes a copolymer (A), a fluoroaluminosilicate glass powder (B) and water (C). The copolymer (A) includes a polymer or copolymer of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid, or includes a copolymer of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid and one or more kinds selected from a group of acrylamide, acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid ester, acrylates, vinyl chloride, allyl chloride and vinyl acetate. In the copolymer (A), the number of molecules of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid occupies 50% or more of the total number of molecules. The dental glass ionomer cement composition further includes a compound (D) which contains a sulfur atom in one molecule, includes a carboxylic group and an amino group and does not include a polymerizable group.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A dental glass ionomer cement composition, consisting essentially of:
(A) a copolymer comprising
(a1) a polymer or a copolymer of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid, or
(a2) a copolymer of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid and at least one selected from the group consisting of acrylamide, acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid ester, acrylates, vinyl chloride, allyl chloride and vinyl acetate,
wherein the number of molecules of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid occupies 50% or more of the total number of molecules;

(B) a fluoroaluminosilicate glass powder;
(C) water; and
(D) a compound comprising a sulfur atom, a carboxylic group, and an amino group, wherein the compound (D) does not comprise a polymerizable group.

2. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the compound (D) is a compound having a structure in which the sulfur atom is not adjacent to an oxygen atom in the molecule.

3. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the dental glass ionomer cement composition contains 0.01 to 10% by weight of the compound (D).

4. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the compound (D) is a compound having at least one selected from the group consisting of a thiol (—SH) structure, a sulfide (—S—) structure, and a disulfide (—S—S—) structure.

5. The composition of claim 1 , consisting essentially of:
a first component comprising the copolymer (A) and water (C); and
a second component comprising the fluoroaluminosilicate glass powder (B) and the compound (D).

6. The composition of claim 1 , wherein the compound (D) is at least one selected from the group consisting of D-cysteine hydrochloride-hydrate, DL-cysteine hydrochloride-hydrate, DL-homocysteine, L-cysteine, L-cysteine hydrochloride-hydrate, L-β,β-dimethylcysteine, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, DL-cysteine, D(−)-penicillamine, L-methionine, L-(−)-cysteine, thiomalic acid, and glutathione.

7. The composition of claim 6 , wherein the compound (D) comprises L-cysteine or L-methionine.

8. A dental glass ionomer cement composition, consisting of:
(A) a copolymer comprising
(a1) a polymer or a copolymer of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid, or
(a2) a copolymer of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid and at least one selected from the group consisting of acrylamide, acrylonitrile, methacrylic acid ester, acrylates, vinyl chloride, allyl chloride and vinyl acetate,
wherein the number of molecules of α-β unsaturated carboxylic acid occupies 50% or more of the total number of molecules;

(B) a fluoroaluminosilicate glass powder;
(C) water;
(D) a compound comprising a sulfur atom, a carboxylic group, and an amino group, wherein the compound (D) does not comprise a polymerizable group; and optionally, (F) a room temperature polymerization initiator comprising an aromatic sulfinic acid or an alkali salt thereof and/or an aromatic sulfonyl compound.
