Provided are a blank for dental cutting having a part to be cut made from a resin material, wherein the resin material includes a composite material in which inorganic particles are dispersed in a resin matrix, the inorganic particles are made from aggregates of inorganic spherical particles having a specific average primary particle diameter, have a narrow particle size distribution, and include one or a plurality of spherical particle groups of the same particle diameter (G-PID) having a refractive index smaller than that of the resin matrix and an ultrafine particle group (G-SFP), and the arrangement structure of all of the inorganic spherical particles constituting the spherical particle groups of the same particle diameter in the resin matrix has a short-range ordered structure that fulfills specific conditions, and a method for producing the same. |
