Dimensional accuracy of vinyl polyether and polyvinyl siloxane impression materials in direct implant impression technique for multiple dental implants

Abstract: The present study compared the dimensional accuracy of vinyl polyether silicone (VPES) and polyvinyl siloxane (PVS) impression materials used for non-splinted (NS) and splinted (S) direct open-tray impression techniques for multiple implants inserted in simulated edentulous mandibles. Materials and MethodsA mandibular stainless steel model with eight internal connections for implant analogs was fabricated to simulate a clinical scenario. The acrylic resin splinted and non-splinted direct impressions were obtai… Show more

“…Vinyl polyether silicone (VPES), a novel elastomeric impression material, offered a variety of viscosities and setting times. The manufacturer described it as a blend of polyether (PE) and vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) [13]. This substance is a blend of silicon dioxide (30%-65%), vinyl dimethylpolysiloxane (10%-50%), and methyl hydrogen dimethylpolysiloxane (3%-10%).…”

“…According to the manufacturer data sheet for VPES, PE makes up 5% to 20% of the material's total composition, which increases the material's hydrophilicity and improves final impressions in situations where humidity is a concern, such as when moisture control is challenging due to excessive salivation or the presence of minute bleeding [13,15]. The manufacturer of EXA'lence impression material states that even after the impression has been poured for up to two weeks, the PE-containing material exhibits exceptional dimension stability.…”

“…Basapogu et al [ 6 ] reported that the dimensional accuracy of silicone impression materials had an error ranging from 0.6% to 0.2%; however, the dimensional accuracy was better than that of alginate impression materials. Rajendran et al [ 7 ] also performed silicone impressions on implant abutments. The authors reported on the usefulness of silicone impression materials for implant treatments.…”

“…The accuracy of the implant impression is affected, inter alia, by the implant angulation, impression technique, additional splinting, impression material and cast material [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 ]. Polyether and polyvinyl siloxane materials are most frequently used for implant impressions.…”
