E. Properties of Polysulfide Impression Materials – Polysulfide impression materials are much more accurate than alginate. Four silicone impression materials… %PDF-1.4 %���� Elastomers are polymers characterized by highly flexible kinked segments that allow freedom of movement. Purpose. While for Exa-LB the TSb/YS ratio was relatively high (0.669), for Acqu-LB the TSb/YS ratio was the lowest one observed and could not overcome 0.396. Concerning the ultimate strain at break (USb), statistical analysis showed that heavy-body VPSs had significantly reduced mean values compared to the corresponding light bodies, with the exception of Affinis (HB: 47.19 mm, LB: 47.55 mm) and Aquasil (HB: 34.53 mm, LB: 45.88 mm). 0000016718 00000 n A method of measuring torsional shear modulus and rigidity of elastomeric impression materials has been developed and is described. The ANSI/ADA standard specifies that tear strength specimens of dental elastomeric impression materials should be tested 1 hour following polymerization [25]. Chai et al.—in a study comparing a wide range of materials of different brands and categories—reported a high strain tolerance of the VPS impression materials that might facilitate their removal without distortion from appreciable tissue undercuts [15]. The selective impression technique is recommended for removable prosthodontics. The upper and the lower plates of the split mold were kept assembled for the whole setting time recommended by each manufacturer and under a constant 5 Kg load. It is also apparent from Figs 2 and 3 that some materials such as the polysulphides However, the viscoelastic rheological properties of impression materials, particularly the time-dependent viscoelastic changes in impression material immediately after tray seating, are unknown. It is made by placing an appropriate material in a stock or custom dental impression tray which is designed to roughly fit over the dental arches. An explanation for the recorded high standard deviations might be found in the testing apparatus: during tensile loading of samples, when testing tear energy, the tear could deviate from the central axis of the specimen and the observed elongation might not be accurate. Conclusion. This … Nevertheless, according to the authors, it is also desirable that the material tears rather than deforms on a critical point such as a margin, as in clinical practice it appears easier to properly judge and consequently discard a torn impression, rather than a deformed one. Many studies [9, 14, 15, 20, 22–24] on tear strength have been carried out so far; however, standardized test methods have not been established. Once the mold was assembled (c), paths for the injection of the impression materials through lateral apertures were made available. A normal distribution was verified for the analyzed variables before applying statistical tests. This material commonly involves … A different behavior was recorded for the VPES material, whose medium and light viscosities (MB = 3.16 MPa; LB = 4.03 MPa) showed significantly increased TSb values () compared to the HB viscosity (1.42 MPa). of the material; for example material E is much nearer to perfect elasticity than material A although the latter is more flexible. Revised ANSI/ADA Specification no. We will be providing unlimited waivers of publication charges for accepted research articles as well as case reports and case series related to COVID-19. Heavy-body VPSs generally showed higher TSb values than the light bodies from the same manufacturer. 0000011224 00000 n – However, they are not as accurate as other non aqueous elastomeric materials. VPSs consistently showed higher tensile strength at brake (TSb) values than PEs. @article{Kawara2015RheologicalPO, title={Rheological properties of elastomeric impression materials for selective pressure impression technique. 0000112465 00000 n the actual impression material is the most influential [11,18]. The value is provided with two numbers: one represents the hardness at 90 seconds after removal from the mouth; the other at 2 hours. Example of a specimen loaded in tension until failure. The material located at or close to undercut areas could permanently deform on removal. 0000033833 00000 n The tensile properties of 17 hydrophilic impression materials with different consistencies were compared.Materials and Methods. The difficulty of removing impressions made of the putty or the polyether, and the increased risk of die breakage could be associated with the higher rigidity of these materials. Mean values for tensile strength, yield strength, strain at break, and strain at yield point were calculated. The clinical tear performance of a material also appears crucial [15, 16]: it involves complex interactions between polymer and fillers, flow to a particular film thickness, release properties from tooth and soft tissue, presence of internal and surface defects, and rate of impression withdrawal. 0000024640 00000 n – The y are based on silicone rubber, which is com monly used in other industries. Kawara M(1), Iwasaki M(2), Iwata Y(2), Komoda Y(2), Inoue S(2), Komiyama O(3), Suzuki H(3), Kuroki T(3), Hashizaki K(4). Meanwhile, the dimensions of the impression should remain stable during the production of dies or casts. Creep compliance measurements were shown to be effective in characterizing the elastic, retarded elastic, and viscous properties of polysulphide, silicone, and polyether impression materials. 0000002021 00000 n Sign up here as a reviewer to help fast-track new submissions. An impression material sustains some deformation as it is removed from the mouth but it must rebound to its pre- removal dimensions. Materials and Methods Table 1 gives details of the materials used in this study. A study of the “thixotropic” property of elastomeric impression materials.
