lec 9 - Impression Procedures and Materials for Removable Partial Dentures Flashcards
- Negative likeness or an imprint made placing some soft, semifluid material in the mouth and allowing that material to set.
IMPRESSION
usually used for cast restoration and are elastic when removed from the mouth.
Impression material
IDEAL IMPRESSION MATERIAL (7)
- Complete plasticity before cure (set)
- Sufficient fluidity to record define detail
- The ability to wet the oral tissues
- Dimensional accuracy
- Dimensional stability
- Complete elasticity after cure
- Optional utilities
IMPRESSION MATERIAL CLASSIFICATION
(1) Rigid Impression Materials
(2) Thermoplastic Impression Materials
(3) Elastic Impression Materials
- Set to rigid consistency
- Cannot be removed from the mouth without fracture and reassembly.
RIGID IMPRESSION MATERIALS
RIGID IMPRESSION MATERIALS (2)
Plaster of Paris
Metallic Oxide Paste
- One type of impression material is which has been used in dentistry for over 200 years.
plaster of Paris
was once the only material available for removable partial denture impressions, but now elastic materials have completely replaced the impression plasters in this phase of prosthetic dentistry.
plaster of Paris
usually some form of a zinc oxide–eugenol combination.
METALLIC OXIDE PASTE
they are not used as primary impression materials and should never be used for impressions that include remaining natural teeth.
METALLIC OXIDE PASTE
THERMOPLASTIC MATERIALS (2)
Modelling plastic
Impression waxes and natural resins
- Modelling Compound
Modelling plastic
- Oldest impression material used in prosthetic dentistry
MODELLING PLASTIC
- Most often used for border correction (border molding) of custom impression trays for distal free end classifications. It is manufactured in several different colors, each color being an indication of the temperature range at which the material is plastic and workable.
MODELLING PLASTIC
most commonly used modeling plastic for corrected impressions for extension base areas. (softens around 132°F/55.55°C)
- Red-brown
obtainable in stick form used in border molding
Red, Gray, and Green
- Used to record non-undercut edentulous portions of the oral cavity and are generally used in combination with other impression materials like polysulfide, ZOE impression paste or impression compound.
IMPRESSION WAXES AND NATURAL RESINS
- May be used to correct the borders of impressions made of more rigid materials thereby establishing optimum contact at the border of the denture.
IMPRESSION WAXES AND NATURAL RESINS
- All mouth temperature ____________ have the ability to record border detail accurately and include the correct width of the denture border.
wax impressions
IMPRESSION WAXES AND NATURAL RESINS IS USED FOR (2)
Corrective impression
Bite Registration
developed for used in recording the functional or supporting form of an edentulous ridge. May be used as a secondary impression materials
- Iowa Wax
- Are those that remain in an elastic or flexible state after they have set and have been removed from the mouth
ELASTIC IMPRESSION MATERIALS
- Only ones that can be withdrawn from tooth and tissue undercuts without permanent deformation and therefore are used generally for making impressions for removable partial dentures, immediate dentures, crowns, and fixed partial dentures when tooth and tissue undercuts and surface detail must be recorded with accuracy
ELASTIC IMPRESSION MATERIALS
Elastic Materials (5)
Reversible Hydrocolloids
Irreversible Hydrocolloids
Mercaptan Rubber-base Impression Materials
Polyether Impression Materials
