A dental sintering furnace for sintering ceramic dental elements comprises a receiving chamber (10) for receiving the dental element (14) to be sintered. The receiving chamber (10) is surrounded by an electric heating unit (24) for heating the dental elements (14) to a pre-sintering temperature. Further, the receiving chamber (10) is surrounded by an annular microwave conductor (30) designed as a hollow conductor. On an inner wall (46), the microwave conductor comprises a plurality of decoupling slots (48) to decouple the microwaves in the direction of the receiving chamber (10). In a method for sintering ceramic dental elements, all the dental elements are first heated to a pre-sintering temperature by means of the electrical heating unit (24) and then the dental elements (14) heated to the pre-sintering temperature are irradiated by microwave radiation for coupled heating of the dental elements (14) to the sintering temperature.
