The present invention relates to a method for producing a calcium phosphate sintered body exhibiting a milky white color suitable for artificial teeth. Sintered bodies of calcium phosphate powder, especially hydroxyapatite powder, have good compatibility with living organisms when used in artificial teeth, but when sintered in the atmosphere, they exhibit a pale blue to bluish-purple color, so when used as artificial teeth, There was a problem with the appearance of the product. On the other hand, if sintered in a reducing atmosphere, the color tone would be the same as natural teeth, but the sintering would be insufficient and the strength would be low, making it unusable. The purpose of the present invention is to improve this and obtain a calcium phosphate sintered body that exhibits a milky white color similar to that of natural teeth and has high strength . / or CO 0.05-50% by weight, preferably 1-30%
The object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a milky white calcium phosphate sintered body, which is characterized in that re-firing is carried out in an atmosphere in which the balance by weight is N 2 and/or Ar. The reason why the calcium phosphate sintered body exhibits a pale blue to bluish-purple color is currently unknown, but the color begins to develop at about 1000℃ at the start of sintering, and becomes even more intense as the firing temperature increases. becomes. Therefore, we conducted intensive research on making the color milky white without reducing the degree of sintering, and found that sintering was first carried out in a non-reducing atmosphere such as air or a neutral atmosphere, and then H 2 and/or CO was added at 0.05 to If re-fired in an atmosphere containing 50% by weight (hereinafter "weight" will be omitted), preferably in an atmosphere containing 1 to 30%, sintering will proceed and the desired high strength, milky white, dense sintered body will be obtained. I made sure that it was possible. In this case, H 2 and/or CO were suitable as the reducing gas for the re-firing atmosphere, but it is necessary to contain a reducing gas, and an atmosphere containing hydrocarbons, alcohol, etc. can be used as well. Conceivable. Also, the content is 0.05% to 50%.
If it is less than 50%, the effect of changing the color tone will be poor, and if it is more than 50%, the phosphoric acid will be reduced, giving it a reddish tinge, which will also create a strange feeling. Next, regarding the composition of calcium phosphate used in the present invention, any composition can be used as long as the main component is calcium phosphate, and examples include the following compositions. A composition prepared by adding 0.1 to 15% phosphoric acid to a calcium phosphate with a calcium/phosphorus atomic ratio of 1.40 to 1.75, published in JP-A-55-42240, published in JP-A-55-56062 Calcium phosphate with a calcium/phosphorus atomic ratio of 1.40 to 1.75, and a calcium/phosphorus atomic ratio of 0.2 to 1.75.

Although a composition containing up to 23% of ittria is given as an example, the present invention is not limited thereto, and any calcium phosphate-based sintered body can be used. A more specific explanation will be given below with reference to Examples. Example 1 3% camphor was mixed with an appropriate amount of ether and added to a powder of a composition of 86% hydroxyapatite, 9% Y 2 O 3 and 5% frit A having the composition shown in Table 1.

Samples 3 to 11 have good color tone and bending strength, and the secondary firing atmosphere is an H2 atmosphere containing 25%.
The color tone of No. 10 was particularly similar to natural teeth. Also, in terms of strength, the atmosphere for secondary firing is H 2 or CO or 50%.
No. 7 and No. 11 have 1550Kg/cm 2 and 1500Kg/cm 2 , while No. 1 has 3 to 25% H 2 and/or CO.
