Material (A) for dentures, having a 3-point bending strength of 1300 MPa, is claimed. Independent claims are included for: (1) a preform for the production of a denture; (2) a set of preforms, preferably preforms from the same preform body, where all the preforms of the set is transformed by sealed sintering such that they exhibit a 3-point bending strength of at least 1300, 1400, 1500, 1600, 1700, 1800, 1900 or 2000 MPa; (3) the manufacture of preform bodies or preforms for the production of dentures, comprising pressing a powder with an isostatic or uniaxial, biaxial or triaxial pressing pressure of at least 1500 bar; and (4) the manufacture of a denture component comprising producing preforms or preform bodies and subsequently producing preforms or providing the preforms or a set of preforms, machining the preforms to mold one or more dentures, for example by mill-cutting.
