Zirconia mill blank for dental cutting and machining and preparing method thereof, and transparency improving liquid for zirconia mill blank for dental cutting and machining and using method thereof

Abstract

To provide a zirconia perfect sintered body which has a chroma of an excellent color tone and excellent translucency as compared with a zirconia mill blank for dental cutting and machining prepared from a zirconia raw material powder containing various stabilizing materials while maintaining high strength, and does not cause deformation. The zirconia mill blank of the present invention is a semi-fired zirconia mill blank for dental cutting and machining containing a semi-fired body of a ceramic particle, the zirconia mill blank for dental cutting and machining contains zirconium oxide, a stabilizing material consisting of an oxide, and a water-soluble compound salt which contains at least one element selected from calcium, magnesium and a rare earth element and is not an oxide, the content of the stabilizing material in terms of the oxide in the semi-fired body of the ceramic particle is within a range of 2 to 7 mol %, and the content of the water-soluble compound salt in the zirconia mill blank for dental cutting and machining is within a range of 0.1 to 3.5 mol %.
