- Used for a variety of impressions, including those for crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays, onlays, dentures, bite registrations, and nightguards
Uses:
- Crowns and bridges:
- Taking accurate impressions is a critical first step in fabricating crowns and bridges
- Blue Velvet's hydrophobic properties displace fluids to capture a precise, bubble-free impression of the prepared tooth, including the subgingival margins
- Veneers, inlays, and onlays:
- For these custom-fit restorations, a highly accurate impression is needed to ensure a perfect fit with the prepared tooth
- Bite registrations:
- Its fast set time and thixotropic consistency make Blue Velvet an ideal material for creating quick and precise bite registrations, which are used to determine the correct occlusal relationship for restorations
- Dentures (full and partial):
- The material is used to create precise impressions of the patient's dental arches for the fabrication of dentures, helping to ensure good stability and retention
- Implants:
- It is suitable for taking impressions for fixed implant restorations, providing the detail required for an accurate prosthesis
- Relining dentures:
- It can be used for relining dentures to improve their fit and comfort
Features & Benefits:
- Impression material:
- This is a vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) impression material used to take precise final dental impressions
- Fast set:
- It is formulated with a 30-second working and setting time, which speeds up the impression procedure and reduces chair time for both the patient and the dental professional
- Hydrophobic:
- The material is hydrophobic, meaning it displaces fluids away from the impression area
- This allows for accurate impressions of subgingival margins without needing a retraction cord, gingival excision, or hemostatic agents
- Thixotropic:
- The material has a whipped-cream-like consistency that prevents running, dripping, and gagging during the procedure
- Radiopaque:
- This property makes the impression material visible on X-rays, which can aid in post-procedural diagnosis
- Versatile applications:
- It is used for a variety of impressions, including those for crowns, bridges, veneers, inlays, onlays, dentures, bite registrations, and nightguards
