When the clinical procedure is limited to 1 or 2 units, the clinician may choose a dual-arch tray. A metal tray would be preferred over a plastic tray because of its rigidity and resultant dimensional stability. A tray material that is very inflexible should be used for its rigidity and ability to support gypsum when the model is poured.

Management of fenestration defects during flapless immediate implant placement in esthetic zone. Kher U, Tunkiwala A, Umrigar Z., Int J Periodontics Restorative Dent. Nov-Dec 2015; 35(6):e90-6. For precision impressions, a rigid, sturdy impression tray made of metal, acrylic or plastic should be selected. Rigidity is an important property, as deformation of the tray and / or material will lead to inaccuracies in the final impression. The use of a non-perforated rigid tray is highly recommended with uniform space (2 to 3 mm) around the teeth.

There is no single procedure that a dentist can do, or any single procedure that a lab can do for the dentist, that will improve the final result of indirect restorations more than improving the quality of the impression. The impression is the basic starting point for all laboratory procedures, as well as the basis for quality and cost-effective dentistry for the clinician. Use a putty matrix of the ideal tooth shape and position (ideally from a wax-up) as a guide to keep you aware of what you are aiming for. Prepare from crown down Therefore, it’s important to polish your preparations. This is done with fine diamond burs, abrasive disks, or white stones. Clear marginsNo reaction by-products are formed as long as the correct proportions of divinylpolysiloxane and polymethylhydrosiloxane are used and there are no impurities. However, the residual polymethylhydrosiloxane in the material can lead to a secondary reaction with each other or with moisture, to produce hydrogen gas. Technically, hydrogen gas is a reaction by-product that does not affect the dimensional stability of the impression. Nonetheless, the hydrogen gas evolved can result in pinpoint voids in the gypsum casts poured soon after removal of the impression from the mouth. Manufacturers may add a noble metal, such as palladium, as a scavenger for the released hydrogen gas. The impression should be left overnight if epoxy will be used for pouring models. Recently, variations of these putty/wash techniques suggest that they can be successfully utilized to obtain impressions without the use of retraction cords. The concept is that the wash material can hydrostatically be forced into the gingival sulcus when the set putty impression is reseated in the mouth, thereby capturing the impression of the margins without having to place retraction cords or remove gingival tissue with a laser or electrosurgically. Some techniques further suggest that this technique can hydrostatically displace crevicular fluids as well as tissue. MilIar B J, Dunne S M, Robinson P B .

A hydrocolloid material is a gelatinous substance dispersed in water. It is described as being irreversible as it cannot return to a solution once set. Alginate also contains;

After the impression material has completely solidified, gently tilt the tray to dislocate the impression and then rotate the tray out of the mouth. Avoid violent use when removing the impression, avoid excessively tilting the tray, to avoid deformation of the tray and the impression, or to release the impression material, to avoid the tray rubbing against the jaw or damage the soft tissue. There are primarily two material classes that are widely accepted for precision impressions: Polyethers and A-type (addition-cured) silicones (VPS). Due to their low cost, C-type silicones (condensation-cured) are also still being used in some dental practices. However, their material-inherent high polymerization shrinkage leads to an inferior dimensional accuracy of the impression and therefore their use is not recommended for precision work.Ideally, the impression material should flow freely and wet the tissue as it is being injected to achieve adaptation, and then resist flow away from the intended surface areas. The same procedure will facilitate spreading of heavy-body material on the impression tray and retain it in the tray. This phenomenon is called shear thinning ( Chapter 3). Essentially, a stress-thinning material becomes less viscous when stressed as during injection and then recovers its viscosity when it rests on the tissue or or in the tray. All elastomeric impression materials exhibit shear-thinning characteristics before setting. Dentistry is evolving and advancing at a rapid pace and traditional methods are being replaced by new and innovative technology. The introduction of new technology often improves accuracy and efficacy of treatment, reduces time in the dental chair, increases cost-effectiveness and makes the process less stressful and time-consuming for both the patient and the dentist.

Calcium hydroxide may be used for pulp capping and as a base/liner under other dental restorative materials in deep preparations. B.Protective Properties Glass ionomer cement may be used as a base, a luting agent, or a restorative material. As a luting agent, it is used to permanently cement crowns, bridges, and orthodontic bands. As a base, it is used as a thermal insulating material in deep cavity preparations. B.Related InformationStatistically, laboratories see more problems with 2-step impressions than any other technique. This is a result of the difficulty in repositioning the impression in the exact same position without creating a “step” between the original putty impression and the detailed wash impression. It is much more difficult to reseat the tray than it appears, and the result is more chairside occlusal adjustments in the completed restoration. There appears to be little difference in reducing the creation of “steps” by routing out some of the material around the prepared tooth or washing the entire arch.

The differences between impression materials, as outlined above, are the materials themselves and the purpose they are used for. Each of the materials has advantages and disadvantages, but they are each used for a different purpose and are effective and commonly used products in dentistry today.
