Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following

This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 106, Dentistry, Subcommittee SC 2,
Prosthodontic materials, in collaboration with the European Committee for Standardization (CEN)
Technical Committee CEN/TC 55, Dentistry, in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation
between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition (ISO 10477:2018), which has been technically
revised.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— missing exemption condition for opaque resin test specimens in line 6 of Table 1 has been added;
— required number of specimen in 7.8 (Shade consistency and colour stability) has been corrected;
— several editorial changes have been made to describe the procedures more precisely;
— appropriate intervals for the storage times described in the procedures have been added.

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Dentistry — Polymer-based crown and veneering
materials
1 Scope
This document classifies polymer-based crown and veneering materials used in dentistry and specifies
their requirements. It also specifies the test methods to be used to determine conformity to these
requirements.
This document is applicable to polymer-based crown and veneering materials for laboratory-fabricated
permanent veneers or crowns. It also applies to polymer-based dental crown and veneering materials
for which the manufacturer claims adhesion to the substructure without macro-mechanical retention
such as beads or wires.

3.1
polymer-based crown and veneering material
composition of powders and liquids or pastes that may contain monomers, inorganic and/or polymeric
fillers and that, when polymerized, is suitable for use as permanent dental veneers or crowns
Note 1 to entry: Polymerization is effected by mixing initiator(s) and activator(s) (“self-curing” materials) and/
or by external energy activation [by heat (“heat-curing” materials), photoactivated materials, by visible light
(“light-curing” materials) and/or by UV radiation].
Note 2 to entry: The polymer-based crown and veneering materials for laboratory-fabricated permanent veneers
or crowns may or may not be attached to a substructure.

3.2
dentine resin
pigmented and slightly translucent polymer-based crown and veneering material (3.1) that simulates the
natural appearance of dentine
3.3
enamel resin
translucent and slightly pigmented polymer-based crown and veneering material (3.1) that is packed in a
layer over the dentine resin and that simulates the natural appearance of enamel
3.4
cervical resin
intensely pigmented and slightly translucent polymer-based crown and veneering material (3.1) with a
colour that simulates the natural appearance of dentine of the cervical region of the tooth
3.5
opaque resin
intensely pigmented polymer-based crown and veneering material applied in thin layers with the
purposes of completely masking the underlying material and bonding to it
Note 1 to entry: Therefore opaque resins are only required to fulfil the requirement 5.5.
4 Classification
The polymer-based crown and veneering materials described in this document shall be classified
according to their activation system for polymerization.
— Type 1: polymer-based crown and veneering materials whose setting is effected by mixing
initiator(s) and activator(s) (“self-curing” materials);
— Type 2: polymer-based crown and veneering materials whose setting is effected by the application
of energy from an external source (“external-energy-activated” materials), such as heat and/or
radiation (visible or UV range);
— Class 1: polymer-based crown and veneering materials that do not contain a photo-
polymerization initiator;
— Class 2: polymer-based crown and veneering materials that contain a photo-polymerization
initiator;
— Type 3: polymer-based crown and veneering materials whose setting is effected by mixing
initiator(s) and activator(s) and also by the application of energy from an external source (“dual-
cure” materials).
5 Requirements
5.1 General
The tests required for a crown and veneering material depend on the classification according to Type
and Class.
