Comparison of the accuracy of fixture-level implant impressions using two different materials for splinting
Background. Various materials are used for splinting impression copings, the most common of which are auto-polymerizing resins. In this study, a new light-curing pattern resin (Jig-Gel) was investigated and compared with auto-polymerizing resins using two different splinting methods. Methods. After...

Sumario: | Background. Various materials are used for splinting impression copings, the most common of which are auto-polymerizing resins. In this study, a new light-curing pattern resin (Jig-Gel) was investigated and compared with auto-polymerizing resins using two different splinting methods. Methods. After taking impressions with two different materials, a digital caliper with an accuracy of 0.01 mm was used for splinting and measuring the distances between the external parts of the analogs inside the plaster cast. The accuracy was also compared in five groups as follows; group 1: splinting of impression copings by auto-polymerizing acrylic resin, group 2: cutting the splinting of impression copings with self-polymerizing acrylic resin, group 3: splinting of impression copings with a light-cured resin pattern (Jig-Gel), group 4: splinting of impression copings cut by a light-cured resin pattern, and group 5: impression with no splint. All statistical analyses were performed with SPSS 17. Statistical significance was set at P<0.05. Results. The highest impression accuracy was obtained in the group without cutting the splint of the impression copings using auto-polymerizing acrylic resin. Compared with the impression methods, impression making of non-splint samples in an impression coping was the least accurate, and the results for the two used methods were similar. Conclusion. The results of this study showed that the combination of the impression coping method and auto-polymerizing acrylic resin had the highest accuracy. |
