DENTAL COMPOSITIONS INCLUDING A THERMALLY LABILE COMPONENT, AND THE USE THEREOF

摘要

Hardenable and hardened dental compositions, and articles including such hardenable and hardened compositions, are provided. The hardenable dental compositions include a thermally labile component including one or more thermally labile groups. Upon heating, the hardened compositions are useful, for example, for reducing the bond strength of orthodontic appliances adhered to tooth structures with the hardened compositions.
