Consultant's Comments:
- Good material - better than most VPS materials I have used in the past.
- Quick setting time - patients loved how fast it set.
- I never had a retake with this material in spite of some diffi cult subgingival preparations.
- Great for implants.
- Perfect blending of putty and wash materials.
- Bright contrasting colors of syringe and tray materials.
- Some chemical taste comes through the mint fl avoring.
- Blue color leaves a residue on gloves and patients’ lips.
Description:
Imprint 4 impression materials are vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) materials indicated for all standard impression techniques. They are 3M ESPE’s newest generation of addition-cured silicones reported to provide “super quick” setting characteristics and significantly improved hydrophilicity. Imprint 4 materials are formulated to have superior hydrophilic properties for exceptional detail and accelerated setting due to an “active self warming” chemical reaction. The Imprint 4 line includes tray and wash materials available in regular and Super Quick set with a peppermint flavor. Super Quick setting materials are indicated for one- or two-unit impressions. Viscosities include putty, heavy, and light in 5:1 foil packages for Pentamix devices and 50 mL automix cartridges for use with dispensing guns.
