Frequently Asked Questions

Q1. How do I choose between different impression materials (alginate vs VPS vs polyether)?

Choosing depends on your clinic’s workflow:

• Alginate is cost-effective, fast set, for study models or single-visit cases but less dimensionally stable.
• VPS (vinyl polysiloxane) offers high detail, good tear strength and excellent stability for lab-work or prosthetics.
• Polyether provides superb dimensional stability and wet-field performance but may be more rigid / expensive.
  Our collection offers all these types so you can select based on clinical demand.

Q2. What is the role of dispensing guns & mixing tips in impression taking?

For two-component impression materials (like some VPS pastes), proper mixing ratio and placement are critical. A dispensing gun with compatible mixing tips ensures homogeneous mix, accurate delivery into the tray or intra-oral, and minimises voids or bubbles, thus improving the accuracy of the impression.

Q3. Why do I need special trays or thermoforming material when taking impressions?

A well-fitting tray supports the impression material uniformly, reduces distortion, ensures proper material thickness and coverage of key anatomical features. Thermoforming materials allow fabrication of custom trays tailored to the patient’s arch, especially useful for complex cases or where off-the-shelf trays may not provide ideal fit.

Q4. How should impressions be handled after taking them to ensure accuracy and avoid distortion?

After the impression is taken:

• Follow the manufacturer’s recommended setting time.
• Remove the impression carefully (avoid flexing).
• Rinse and disinfect as per protocol.
• Pour the model promptly or store the impression in a stable container if delayed (especially for alginate). VPS and polyether allow more room for delay.

Proper handling preserves the accuracy of the impression and avoids shrinkage or distortion before model fabrication.
