Abstract

An improved method for simplifying a slip casting applied conventional all ceramic core molding process by molding an all ceramic core from a ceramic sheet. In the method, there is prepared a slurry which consists mainly of alumina, spinel, alumina/zirconia powder, by adding thereto a dispersant, a binding agent, a plasticizer, a solvent and the like. The slurry is formed into a sheet having a thickness of 0.1 mm to 1.0 mm for thereby fabricating a tooth molding mass by using a heat hydrostatic pressing at a pressure of 15 Kgf/cm.sup.2 to 150 Kgf/cm.sup.2 at a temperature of 50.degree. C. to 110.degree. C., with slurry composition for fabricating an all ceramic jacket crown applicable to an artificial crown.
