Dental Impression Equipment
Providing patients with comfortable restorations that function as they should starts with capturing an accurate, detailed impression. Using the right equipment will help ensure you take impressions that lead to successful outcomes for your patients. This includes equipment that properly mixes the material and that properly dispenses the material into the appropriate impression tray. As the technology continues to advance, more dentists are turning to digital impression systems rather than traditional methods to take impressions. These systems are designed to make the process easier for both you and the patient, increasing accuracy, decreasing procedure times and making it easy to integrate digitally with your dental lab. Patients don’t have to deal with the discomfort that typically comes with impression materials, and you produce more accurate, detailed impressions. Scans are read almost instantly and can be sent directly to your lab or a chairside CAD/CAM system.
What Types of Dental Impression Equipment is Available for My Practice?
There is a variety of equipment designed to help you take better impressions. They include:
Alginate Mixers
Impression Trays
Digital Impression Systems
Automatic Mixers
Hand Dispense Guns
Mixing Tips
What Should I Consider When Selecting Dental Impression Equipment?
When taking traditional impressions, determine if you want to work with trays you reuse or that become part of the impression when sent to the lab. Impression trays come in various sizes and are designed to capture specific parts of the anatomy, such as a full arch, a quadrant or opposing dentition. Use the appropriate tray for each case and stock up on a variety of sizes and styles. If you’ve decided to invest in a digital impression system, look for a unit from a reputable manufacturer that offers top-notch support. Invest in training and the right system will help you enhance patient comfort and improve accuracy, ultimately resulting in improved clinical outcomes.
