The problem with traditional impressions
Unpleasant
Inaccurate
Inconsistent
Inconvenient
Inefficient
36% of dentists re-take impressions three or more times per month*
36% have patients come back for a second impression at least once per month* Research conducted by Consilium Associates, Irvine, CA
Although impression material has served the dental proffesion well, it does have many drawbacks. From a laboratory point of view we can trace back virtually all of the remakes and faults on cases to a discrepency between what the model shows and the actual situation in the patients mouth.
This often leads to remakes or re impressions, both of which cost valuable surgery/laboratory time and money.
