Elastomeric Impression Materials

Minimal dimensional changes that result during polymerization and prior to casting of the impression are desired. In addition silicones, these changes are small resulting in a dimensionally stable impression that is usable for weeks. 

• Low viscosity – injectable 

• Heavy viscosity – tray 

• Automix, easy to use 

• customized working/setting time 

• Ability to be disinfected 

• Compatible with cast/die materials 

• Adequate shelf life 

• Cost-effective 

• Distinctive color contrast between lightand heavy-body viscosities 

A set impression must be sufficiently elastic so that it will return to its original dimensions without significant distortion upon removal from the mouth.
