Preliminary Edemtulous Impressions - 10<br />

13. Less gagging will occur, if the patient is lying down (tongue position avoids gagging)<br />

14. The clinician molds the vestibular areas by pulling on the cheeks and lips to activate<br />

the muscles and frena<br />

15. Support the tray during setting – do not leave the patient, or allow the patient to<br />

support the impression – if the tray moves during gelation, distortion will occur<br />

16. Remove with a sudden jerk (to avoid permanent deformation)<br />

17. Evaluate impression and, if it is acceptable, pour within 12 minutes<br />

18. Rinse the impression thoroughly with water, gently shake to remove excess water.<br />

Spray with disinfectant to coat all surfaces, and seal in a bag for ten minutes<br />

Possible Problems with Syringe Technique:<br />

1. Saliva contamination – vestibular material will appear separate from the tray material<br />

2. Insufficient material – lack of integrity between the syringed and tray material<br />

3. Omitting lubrication of the plunger may make it difficult to express the alginate<br />

4. Trapping tongue under the tray will result in underextension of the lingual vestibule<br />

5. Severe gaggers – the syringe technique involves a slight increase in intraoral<br />

manipulations which may be counter productive for these patients<br />

Diagnostic Casts<br />

Pouring a Model<br />

1. Weigh powder, measure water<br />

2. Vacuum mix (less time, stronger cast)<br />

3. Use a two pour technique<br />

4. Modulate speed of pouring by tilting back and forth or pressing the tray more firmly<br />

onto the vibrator<br />

5. Make sure the model is moist during trimming soak in slurry water, or soak with base<br />

of cast in water<br />

6. Casts should be a minimum of 12 mm (.5 inch) in thinnest part<br />

7. Separate the alginate impression from the stone cast after 45 minutes<br />

Trimming<br />

1. Trim the base on the model trimmer parallel to the residual ridges<br />

2. Leave the mucous membrane reflection intact for making a custom tray. Remove<br />

extensive areas of the cheek or lip reflection which create undercuts and which will<br />

make it difficult to make or remove the custom tray<br />

3. All anatomical surfaces should be included with minimum voids
