| Scientific title | Clinical trial of the influence of time on the three-dimensional accuracy of fast-set polyether and fast-set polyvinyl siloxane impression materials |
| Study acronym | Poly Q |
| Study objectives | Clinical studies have shown a correlation between the fitting precision of fixed dental restorations and the clinical success or survival rate. Since dental impressions mainly determine the fitting precision of fixed restorations, they play an important role. So far, the working times of impression materials have only been evaluated in-vitro. In the clinical routine, deviations from the exact timing occur very often and are either caused by an early filling of the impression tray by the dental assistance or by a delay during syringing of the light-body impression material. The clinical relevance of the exact timing gains even more importance when fast-setting impression materials with shorter working times and setting times are used. A non-optimal timing will have an influence on the three-dimensional precision of fast-set impressions materials. Due to the kinetics of their chemical reaction, polyethers may be of advantage compared to polyvinyl siloxane impression materials. |

| Intervention | The study gains information on the dependency between mixing timing of a one-stage putty-and-wash dental impression and three-dimensional precision of the resulting gypsum models under clinical conditions. Differences between two types of fast-set impression materials (polyether and polyvinyl siloxane) are to be analysed with a computer-aided procedure. Three impressions were taken from the probands, after they had undergone a professional tooth cleaning, in randomised order. Either a polyether impression or a polyvinyl siloxane impression were taken under exact timing conditions and served as a reference. Two additional impressions were taken with non-optimal timing using the same impression material as for the respective reference impression. The two additional impressions were taken with two out of eight different non-optimal timings. The order in which the three impressions were taken as well as the material and the non-optimal timing were assigned to each proband according to a randomisation list. Standardised-made master-casts were digitised and the data resulting from the non-optimal timed impressions was compared to the reference. Probands were treated with fluoride gel afterwards in order to complete the benefit of the professional tooth cleaning. |
