Disinfection
Conclusion
An impression
is a negative
likeness of the
teeth and the
surrounding
structures
A fixed
prosthesis
cannot be
fabricated
without a
proper
impression
A positive
likeness of the
impression
has to be
obtained

for making impression
Phillip Pffaf Chapin Harris

Francois Delabarre Charles Stent

First used
agar for recording
impressions of crows
First introduced
impression compound
Alginate was introduced
in the US during the WW II
Developed synthetic
rubber based
impression materials
S L Pearson
Adjacent
structures
Unprepared teeth
should be recorded
to facilitate
articulation
Exact duplicate
Should include the
prepared surface
and the uncut
surfaces
Attention to
anterior teeth
Influences anterior
guidance which
determines the
occlusal surface of
the teeth
Free of voids
Imperfections
produce
inadequacies
Moisture
control saliva
and blood
Gingival tissues
must be
displaced
laterally to
allow access
and to provide
space for the
material
Tissue health
Saliva control
Gingiva
displacement

Careful evaluation of surrounding tissues
Minimal tissue damage
Properly adapted well contoured
restoration  vital for sustaining
periodontal health

Moisture
absorbing cards
Local
anaesthesia
Anti sialogogues
Given 30-60 minutes before drying effect is required

adequate access
to prepared tooth

Mechanical
displacement Placement of cord  non impregnated or
impregnated
Pushed into the sulcus mechanically stretches
the circumferential PDL
Larger sizes of cords to be avoided  “double
up” and become traumatic
Impregnated cords give better gingival
displacement

Hemorragecontrolwith
aninfusorsyringe
Fill syringe with ferric sulfate
and attach infusor tip
Rub the tip back and forth for
approximately 30 seconds
Irrigate and gently dry the
tissues InspectRepeat
Moisten the cord before
removing

Displacement paste
•Alternative to cord
•Contains AlCl3  paste is
injected into dry sulcus
•Good hemostasis with better
comfort
•Less tissue displacement 
makes die trimming difficult
Rosenstiel SF, Land MF, Fujimoto J. Contemporary Fixed Prosthodontics-E-Book. Elsevier Health Sciences; 2015 Jul

Electrosurgery
•Minor tissue removal
•Inner epithelial lining
of the gingival sulcus is
removed
•Potential for post
surgical recession

Eg: alginate, agar, polyether
Hydrophobic
Eg: polysufide, polyvinyl
siloxane, condensation silicone
Greater the contact
angle, Greater the
chance of air
entrapment

Editor's Notes

  1. Except for polyether, all impression materials are hydrophobic  more chances for voids
  2. Subginigval margins  sulcular damage is inevitable  transient, provided provisional restoration is proper
  3. Impregnated cord  astringent  shrinks gingival tissue  transient ischemia  closes quickly  immediate impression Aluminium chloride and ferric sulfate  cause minimal tissue damage o Contact between astringent solution and prepared tooth must be minimized if smear layer is to be maintained. o Mono acidic hemostatic agent  epinephrine (C/I – cardiac patients  may cause tachycardia)
  4. Evaluate?? Should be able to see the preparation margin clearly and the cord uninterrupted without any soft tissue folding over it. It should remain directly accessible over a minute Repeated use of the gingival retraction cord must be avoided as it may cause recession. Sometimes the use of a double cord technique is useful. For this to be successful, there should be atleast 1mm of space between the top of the initial cord and the preparation margin.
  5. Hollow metal tip contains a cotton filament to help control flow of the medicament
  6. Caution to be exercised while pouring impression made of materials whose surface is more difficult to wet
  7. Shear thinning  when a monophasic body is suspended over a false body (material of thicker consistency) can stay without sagging or dripping. At the sae time, it exhibits sufficient viscosity when expressed through a syringe  thixotropic material
  8. Not primary criteria for choosing impression material
  9. For reversible hydrocolloids, reducing bulk may not increase accuracy, instead it is the reverse.
  10. Alternatively, the resin maybe soaked in boiling water for 5 mins and allowed to cool to room temperature
  11. Packaged as semi-solid gel in polyethylene tubes. Requires 3 water baths. Liquifying bath, storage bath tempering bath.
  12. Pressure exerted on the tray while the wash is polymerizing will produce stresses in the semi-rigid putty lining the impression tray. When the impression is removed from the mouth, the stresses will relax, resulting in deformation and distortion of the impression
  13. Decreased setting time  swift and prganised
