Dental curable composition

Abstract

The dental curable composition of the present invention contains 100 parts by mass of a polymerizable monomer, 170 to 270 parts by mass of an inorganic filler (B) having an average particle diameter of 50 nm to 1 μm and having a zeta potential of a constituent particle with either positive or negative polarity, and 5 to 50 parts by mass of an inorganic filler (C) composed of inorganic particles having a zeta potential opposite to that of (B) and having a specific surface area of 25 to 100 m2/g. According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a dental curable composition containing a polymerizable monomer and an inorganic filler, which can be suitably used as a flowable composite resin, the dental curable composition having a consistency suitable for discharge from a syringe equipped with a needle tip and good shapability without treating the inorganic filler with a special surface treating agent and without being affected by the type of the polymerizable monomer used, and being particularly suitably used as a flowable composite resin.
