Alginate Materials and Dental Impression Technique: A Current State of the Art and Application to Dental Practice. [PDF]
Hydrocolloids were the first elastic materials to be used in the dental field. Elastic impression materials include reversible (agar-agar), irreversible (alginate) hydrocolloids and synthetic elastomers (polysulfides, polyethers, silicones). They reproduce an imprint faithfully, providing details of a high definition despite the presence of undercuts ...

Dental impression technique using optoelectronic devices [PDF]
The use of Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) as a non-invasive and high precision quantitative information providing tool has been well established by researches within the last decade. The marginal discrepancy values can be scrutinized in optical biopsy made in three dimensional (3D) micro millimetre scale and reveal detailed qualitative and ...

Complete Denture Impression Techniques Practiced by Private Dental Practitioners: A Survey
Impression making is an important step in fabricating complete dentures. A survey to know the materials used and techniques practiced while recording complete denture impressions was conducted. It is disheartening to know that 33 % practitioners still use base plate custom trays to record final impressions.

Effect of the disinfection technique on the linear dimensional stability of dental impression materials [PDF]
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the dimensional stability of heavy and light bodied condensation silicones after immersion in disinfectant solution for 10 or 20 minutes. The impression materials were Optosil Comfort and Xantopren VL Plus and the disinfectant solutions were 1% sodium hypochlorite and 2% glutaraldehyde. Impressions were made on

Trueness of full-arch dental models obtained by digital and conventional impression techniques: an in vivo study [PDF]
AbstractThe aim of this study was to compare the trueness of complete- and partial-arch impressions obtained using conventional impression materials and intraoral scanners in vivo. Full-arch impressions were taken using polyether and polyvinylsiloxane. Gypsum casts were digitized using a laboratory scanner (IM, AF).

Dental impression techniques assessment: patients’ rating and perceptions
Abstract Dental impression in dentistry is used for many purposes. One of these is to make a model that allows the study of fine details outside the oral cavity, which is sometimes impossible to achieve by direct prosthetic field inspection. Purpose: Through the study, we aim to highlight the importance of the patient's understanding and
