44. Impression is examined and
poured twice in Type IV or V stone
The first pour in the area of
the preparation(s) only
45. Which when set, is trimmed into a die
with a handle of sufficient length,
similar to a tooth root
A second pour is then made of the
entire arch.
46. The complete arch cast (second pour) is
mounted on an articulator.
The wax pattern is started on the initial
pour (the die) and is then transferred to
the articulated cast for refinement of axial
contours and occlusal anatomy.
When completed, this pattern is returned
to the die so the margins can be readapted
immediately before investing.
47. Advantages Disadvantages
Simple Difficult to transfer complex or
fragile wax patterns from cast to
die
Accurate Can be used only with
elastomeric impression
materials
Minimum trimming required Seating the pattern on the
master cast may be problematic
The gingival tissue and other
landmarks are intact
67. Section of impression not
required is removed
Secure the impression on to
the impression tray
Use mounting putty in order
to isolate the impression
Cut the mounting putty linearly to establish
the height of the crown of the tooth

The material must be dimensionally accurate and be should be strong and resistant to abrasion.
. It should reproduce surface detail accurately.
In addition, it must be compatible with the impression material also should be compatible with the separating agent that will be used so that the wax pattern
does not stick.
It should be available in a color that contrasts with the wax used so that the preparation margin can be seen.
It should be easily wettable by the wax.
It should be easily sectionable and easy to trim with the routinely available equipment.
It must reproduce the prepared tooth exactly.
2. All surfaces must be accurately duplicated, and
no bubbles or voids can be accepted.
3. The remaining unprepared tooth structure immediately
cervical to the finish line should be
easily discernible on the die, ideally with 0.5 to
1 mm visible (enough must be present to help
the technician establish the correct cervical contour
of the restoration) (Fig. 17-4).
4. Adequate access to the margin is imperative.

Because of the low surface energies, silicone impression materials are difficult to electroplate evenly.
Which can lead to distortion of the pattern.
(Eg: Premabond) , (Eg: Die Prep die hardener)
, no need of special equipment .
because the second pour of many impression materials is slightly larger than the first; therefore, it may be necessary to relieve the stone slightly to seat the pattern before occlusal evaluation.
After dismantling the indentations are used as marker for die cutting
