[4 methods for primary impressions in complete removable dentures].

First necessary step to realize full denture prosthesis, primary impression can be made by different ways. Plaster and alginate, easy to use and often employed remain references technics. Several viscosities silicones allow real prefunctional registrations. Delayed setting resins give precise physiological limits to first impressions.

The accuracy of implant master casts constructed from transfer impressions.

The accuracy of master casts fabricated from three impression techniques commonly used with the Brånemark System was measured. Points placed in a metal surrogate model and onto master abutments were compared after abutments were transferred to stone casts using splinted and unsplinted impression coping techniques. The mean values and standard deviations of each of the reference points on 12 total casts were compared with the values for each point from the surrogate model. Values from techniques using splinted and unsplinted squared polymer copings as well as unsplinted tapered hydrocolloid copings were not significantly different from values recorded from the master surrogate model. Tapered hydrocolloid copings yielded a higher correlation to coordinate values on the master than unsplinted squared polymer copings or splinted squared copings.

Effect of reheating on the accuracy of polysulfide impressions.

Polysulfide impressions were made at 37 degrees C in two cylindrical trays of a truncated cone-shaped chromium-steel die. One tray size was used to obtain impressions with 1 mm thickness from tray to the gingival margin of the preparation, while the second tray permitted a thickness of 4 mm. Stone dies were made from impressions after (1) cooling to 22 degrees C for 10 min or (2) cooling to 22 degrees C for 10 min and reheating to 37 degrees C for 30 min. Results revealed that reheating impressions to mouth temperature before pouring the dies improved their accuracy.

Effect of undercuts on the accuracy of reheated addition-reaction silicone impressions.

Addition-reaction silicone impressions were made at 37 degrees C in two cylindrical trays of a truncated cone-shaped chromium-steel die. One tray size was used to obtain impressions with 1 mm thickness, from tray to the gingival margin of the preparation, while the second tray permitted a thickness of 4mm. The die was undercut aplical to the gingival margin using rings as described before permitting a variation of undercut depth from 0.5 to 1.5 mm. Stone dies were made from impressions after (1) cooling to 22 degrees C for 10 min or (2) cooling to 22 degrees C for 10 min and reheating to 37 degrees C for 30 min. Results revealed that reheating the impressions to mouth temperature before pouring the dies improved their accuracy and that depth of undercut had a definite but small effect on the accuracy of dies.

[Angle reproducibility and surface roughness of stone casts obtained from combined agar-alginate impressions].

Angle reproducibility and surface roughness were compared among stone casts obtained from two agar-alginate impression methods; 1) conventional method in which an alginate mix was applied before gelation of agar, and 2) improved method in which an alginate mix was applied to gelled agar. Impressions of the rectangular parallel piped metal mold with a high accurate point angle was taken according to the above methods, and stone casts were obtained. Enlarged images of the angles of the casts were projected with an optical projector, and the defects of the point angle were traced. The area, the length and the circular-degree coefficient of the defects were determined using an image analysis system. The surface roughness of the stone casts was also measured. The stone casts prepared by the improved agar-alginate method had better angle reproducibility and the same surface roughness as that prepared by the conventional method.

[Full band impressions].

Complete impression with rings achieves the same definition than complete impressions alone and gives a final quality similar to unitary guided impressions. The required steps are the following: 1st clinical: adjustment of the unitary rings, laboratory: elaboration of metallic resin boxing and individual tray, 2nd clinical: complete impression with rings. This method is of a particular interest because of its facility and its possible adaptations to various impression pastes or clinical situations. No gingival conditioning is required to the impression, and increased indications of the method can thus be seen when esthetics or periodontal conditions are a priority.
