Better Material for Final Impression in Complete Dentures: An In Vivo Study
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF SCIENTIFIC STUDY - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Introduction: The impression making is the first and the basic structure-forming unit in complete dentures. The impression basically is a negative replica of border-sealing area, denture-bearing area, and denture-stabilizing area of the oral tissues of the mouth. The purpose of the present study is to find the better material for carrying out the secondary impression in complete dentures. Aim: 30 patients were divided in three subgroups of 10 patients. One group was having 10 complete denture prostheses with the secondary impression made with zinc oxide-eugenol (ZOE) paste, other group with 10 prostheses with addition silicone light body consistency, and remaining 10 patients with polyether as a secondary impression material. Materials and Methods: In intergroup comparison for bubbles, group 3 recorded minimum amount followed by group 2 and maximum bubbles were found in group 1. In intergroup comparison for cracks, group 1 had maximum cracks, followed by group 3 and least in group 2. Result: Analysis of variance was carried out, and all the three groups were found to be significant at P < 0.05 for the amount of bubbles and cracks in impressions. All the three materials tested can be used satisfactorily for secondary impression purpose. Conclusion: Impression made of polyether material developed least bubbles, and maximum were developed by ZOE. Complete dentures made by all the three materials tested had no significant difference in patient satisfaction level.
