|
The dimensional stability
they lose water from evaporation (shrink) undergo syneresis imbibe water if allowed to stand submersed (swell) |
|
How do you best avoid the problems with alginate impressions? (avoid distoration
|
pour immediately, if cannot pour immediately - place in 100% humidity (wrap in damp towel
|
|
what are the advantages of alginate?
|
stock trays, easy to use, fair taste economical, quick setting, hydrophilic, displaces saliva and blood
|
|
what are the disadvantages of alginate?
|
limited detail reproductions, low tear resistance, single pour only, quick pouring required, low dimensional stability

|
<3% 10%
|
|
100% deformation occurs when you are ________
|
removing the impression from the teeth, the ability to recover to original state depends on alginate vs. agar agar
|
|
What recovers to original state and has less deformation? agar-agar, or alginate?
|
agar-agar (1.5%)
alginate (4.5%) - ADA says need to be less than 3% |

|
|
T/F rinse and dry the mouth before making impresion
