A dental impression is a negative imprint of hard (teeth) and soft tissues in the mouth from which a positive reproduction (cast or model) can be formed. It is made by placing an appropriate material in a stock or custom dental impression tray which is designed to roughly fit over the dental arches. Impression material is of solid or semi-solid nature when first mixed and placed in the mouth. It then sets to become an elastic solid (usually takes a few minutes depending upon the material), leaving an imprint of person's dentition and surrounding structures of the oral cavity

This document summarizes key aspects of cell membrane structure and function:
- The cell membrane consists of a lipid bilayer with embedded protein molecules that transport substances across. Channel proteins allow passage of specific molecules, while carrier proteins bind and transport selected molecules or ions.
- Transport across the membrane occurs through passive diffusion or active transport. Passive transport includes simple diffusion of lipid-soluble substances through the bilayer and facilitated diffusion using carrier proteins. Active transport requires energy to move substances against a concentration gradient.
- Protein channels can be selectively permeable and gated to open and close based on electrical or chemical signals, precisely regulating transport. Factors like concentration gradients, electrical potential, and pressure differentials determine the
5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Does Over-Masturbation Contribute to Chronic Prostatitis.pptxwalterHu5
In some case, your chronic prostatitis may be related to over-masturbation. Generally, natural medicine Diuretic and Anti-inflammatory Pill can help mee get a cure.
Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

8 Surprising Reasons To Meditate 40 Minutes A Day That Can Change Your Life.pptxHolistified Wellness
We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.

11. Colloid: “A solid, liquid or gaseous substance made up of
large molecules or masses of smaller molecules that remain
in a suspension in a surrounding continuous medium of
different matter.”
A colloid that contains water as the dispersion phase is
called Hydrocolloid.
By Anusavice KJ: Philips’ Science of Dental materials
11th Edition
Definition:
12. Particles of size: between 10−4 and 10−7 cm and dispersed
in another medium.
Colloids have two phases:
• Dispersed phase (dispersed particle): It is a substance
which is distributed in the form of colloidal particles
(particles of size: between 10−4 and 10−7 cm) and is
dispersed in a suitable dispersion medium.
• Dispersion phase (dispersion medium): It is a medium
in which colloidal particles are dispersed.
13. Basic terminologies associated with hydrocolloids:
Sol: Colloidal suspension of very small solid particles in a continuous
liquid medium
Gel: Network of fibrils that form a weak, slightly elastic brush heap
structure
Gelation: Transformation from sol to gel
Liquefaction temperature: The temperature at which the gel converts
to the sol state
Syneresis: Fluid exuded when gel structures reconfigure to achieve
equilibrium through stress relaxation
Imbibition: Absorption of water
Micelles: The dispersed phase agglomerates to form chains or fibrils in the gel
state called micelles
14. If an hydrocolloid can be easily changed by cooling into gel form and
back into the sol form by heating, the material is known as reversible
hydrocolloid. This process can be repeated several times by temperature
changes.
Gel to sol: On heating, the gel converts to sol form. As the temperature
rises, the kinetic energy of the molecules in the fibrils increases and the
fibrils separate from each other to form sol.
Sol to gel: When the temperature is reduced by cooling, the secondary
intermolecular forces once again come into play and molecules join
together to form fibrils and gel.
16. • Agar-agar (so called in
Malay) is an edible marine
red alga (seaweed) from
which agar material is
extracted.
• It was first discovered in
1925 by Alphons Poller,
an Austrian. It was later
introduced into dentistry in
1928
17. Agar is an organic hydrophilic polysaccharide polymer of
two different sugars in alternating sequence 300–400 units
long. The chemical name of this polymer is “agarose.” It is
a sulfuric ester of linear polymer of galactose. It is the first
successful elastic impression material used in dentistry.
The agar hydrocolloid impression material consists of this
agar in the concentration of 12%–17%.
18. Ingredient Concentration Use
Agar 13% - 17% Main Ingredient
Borate 0.2% - 0.5% Strengthens the set gel
Potassium
sulfate
1% - 2%
Accelerator to counteract the retarding effects of
borax and water on setting of gypsum
Fillers 0.5% - 1%
Commonly added fillers are diatomaceous earth,
silica, clay, rubber, wax, etc. They give strength,
viscosity, and rigidity to the material.
Alkyl benzoate 0.10%
Prevents growth of mold in the material during
storage (Preservative).
Water about 80%
Controls the flow properties of the sol and the
physical properties of the gel.
Ingredients
19. Agar is supplied in various forms such as:
1. gels in collapsible tubes,
2. as gel sticks (cartridges), or
3. in bulk containers.
Agar is a thixotropic material, which has the property
to flow under application of pressure or force. The
thixotropic property is advantageous when making
impressions for mandibular arch because the material does
not flow until placed over the arch.
20. Gelati0n or Setting of Agar
The process of converting gel
to sol is known as liquefaction which occurs
at a temperature between 70 and 100 °C.
As the agar sol cools
the dispersed phase
groups to form fibrils
called micelles
The fibrils branch and
intermesh together to
form a brush-heap
structure
The fibrils form weak
covalent bonds with
each other which
break easily at higher
temperatures resulting
in gel turning to sol.
21. Gelati0n or Setting of Agar
The gelling property of agar-agar is due to the three
equatorial hydrogen atoms on the 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose
residues, which constrain the molecule to form a helix. The
interaction of the helices causes the formation of the gel.
22. Manipulation of Agar
The liquefaction and gelation
temperatures for agar hydrocolloid are
different. The gel to sol and sol to gel
transformations are dependent on time
and temperature. This is known as
hysteresis. This feature of agar enables its
use for dental impression procedures.
23. Manipulation of Agar
The major steps involved in manipulation of the agar are as follows:
1. The first step in using agar material is to liquefy and store it as a sol at 100°C.
2. The tray is loaded with this liquefied agar material.
3. Immediately before making the impression, the loaded tray is cooled to lower
the temperature tolerable by the oral tissues by the process called tempering.
4. The final step occurs once the impression is seated against the oral tissues; to
enable the sol to be converted to gel, circulating water around the impression
tray chills the tray and hardens the material.
24. Equipment for manipulation
A. Agar syringe material
B. Agar tray material in tubes
C. Impression syringes
D. Connecting water hose
E. Water cooled rim lock trays
F. Hydrocolloid conditioner
25. Hydrocolloid conditioner
Boiling
section or
Liquefaction
section
Ten minutes in boiling water (100 °C). The sol should be homogeneous and free of
lumps. Every time the material is liquefied, three minutes should be added. After
every use the agar brush heap structure gets more difficult to break.
Storage
section
65–68 °C temperature is ideal. It can be stored in the sol condition.
Tempering
section
46 °C for about two minutes with the material loaded in the tray. This reduces the
temperature so that it is tolerated by the sensitive oral tissues. It also makes the
material viscous.
26. Impression trays for Agar
Rim lock trays with water
circulating devices are used. The rim
lock is a beading on the inside edge
of the tray border which helps to
retain the material (as agar does not
adhere to the tray). It also has an
inlet and outlet for connecting the
water tubes. The tray should allow a
space of 3 mm occlusally and
laterally and extend distally to cover
all teeth.
27. Working and Setting Time
The working time ranges between 7 minutes and 15
minutes and the setting time is about 5 minutes. Both can be
controlled by regulating the flow of water through the cooling
tubes. Since the cooling tubes are on the periphery, the
material sets from the periphery towards the teeth surfaces.
Removal of Impression
When the agar has gelled, the peripheral seal is broken,
and the impression is removed from the mouth rapidly. The
impression is rinsed thoroughly with water and the excess
water is removed by shaking the impression.
28. Storage of Agar Impression
Storage of agar impression is to be avoided at all costs. The
cast should be poured immediately. Storage in air results in
dehydration, and storage in water results in swelling of the
impression. Storage in 100% relative humidity results in shrinkage
as a result of continued formation of the agar network
agglomeration. If storage is unavoidable, it should be limited to one
hour in 100% relative humidity.
Separation from Cast
When the gypsum product has set, the agar impression must
be removed promptly since the impression will dehydrate, become
stiff and difficult to remove. Weaker portions of the model may
fracture. In addition, prolonged contact will result in a rougher
surface on the model.
29. Properties of Agar impression material
1. Hysteresis: Gelation (solidification) occurs at 37 °C approximately, whereas
liquefaction (melting) occurs at a higher temperature, i.e. 60–70 °C higher than
the gelation temperature.
2. dimensional stability: Poor dimensional stability due to imbibition and
syneresis. So cast is poured immediately.
3. Flexibility: applied. A few set materials, however, have a flexibility of 20%. On
an average a flexibility of 11% is desirable.
4. Elasticity and elastic recovery: They are highly elastic, and elastic recovery
occurs to the extent of 98.8%.
30. Properties of Agar impression material
8. Accuracy and dimensional change: Some contraction takes place during
gelation. If the material is retained well in the tray, the material contracts
towards the tray resulting in larger dies. Agar impressions are highly accurate at
the time of removal from the mouth, but shrink when stored in air or 100%
relative humidity and expand when stored in water. The least dimensional
change occurs when the impressions are stored in 100% humidity (but not for
more than an hour). Thus it is recommended to pour cast in stone immediately.
31. Cast duplication
With the introduction of alginate, agar slowly lost its appeal as an impression
material. However, it is still popular as a duplicating material primarily because
o When liquefied it flows readily (like a fluid) over the cast to be duplicated. This
makes it an ideal mould material.
o Large quantities can be prepared relatively easily.
o It is economical, because it can be reused.
32. Cast duplication
In the construction of cast removable partial dentures (RPD) the relieved and
blocked master cast is duplicated in investment material. This is known as a refractory
cast. The master cast to be duplicated is placed in a duplicating flask or mould former
(Fig. C). The agar is broken into small chunks and loaded into the liquefying machine
(Fig. A) where it is liquefied and stored. The liquid agar is poured into a mould former
(Figs. B and C) to create a mould (Fig. D). Later, investment is poured into this to create
a refractory cast (Fig. E) which is used in the fabrication of the cast partial denture
framework.
33. Impression disinfection
Since the impression has to be sent to the laboratory, the need to disinfect it is very
important. Most manufacturers recommend a specific disinfectant. The agent may be
iodophor, bleach or glutaraldehyde. Apparently little distortion occurs if the
recommended immersion time is followed and if impression is poured promptly.
34. Advantages
• Accurate dies can be prepared, if the material is properly handled.
• Good elastic properties help reproduce most undercut areas.
• It has good recovery from distortion.
• Hydrophilic, moist mouth not a problem. It also gives a good model surface.
• It is palatable and well tolerated by the patient.
• It is economical when compared to synthetic elastic materials.
• It can be reused when used as a duplicating material (reuse is not recommended when
used as impression material).
• Low cost because it can be reused.
35. Disadvantages
• Does not flow well when compared to newly available materials.
• It cannot be electroplated.
• During insertion or gelation, the patient may experience thermal discomfort.
• Tears relatively easily. Greater gingival retraction is required for providing adequate
thickness of the material.
• Only one model can be poured.
• Has to be poured immediately. Cannot be stored for too long.
• Requires special and expensive equipment.
• A soft surface of the gypsum cast results unless a plaster hardener is used.
• Although it can be reused, it is impossible to sterilize this material. Also, with repeated
use there may be contamination of the materials and a deterioration in its properties.
36. Irreversible Hydrocolloids
If a hydrocolloid changes from colloidal solution (sol) to an elastic
gel by a chemical reaction, the resultant gel cannot be converted back
to its original sol state. Such an hydrocolloid material is described as
irreversible hydrocolloid.
The molecules in the irreversible hydrocolloid are joined together
by primary valency bonds. These bonds are very strong and cannot be
affected by temperature changes except at which decomposition takes
place.
For example, alginate impression material: Sodium alginate sol in
water reacts with calcium sulphate, as
Sodium alginate + calcium sulphate → calcium alginate (gel) + sodium sulphate
38. Alginate is based on alginic acid which is prepared from a
brown seaweed, algae, a marine plant. Chemically, it is a linear
polymer of anhydro β-d mannuronic acid of high molecular
weight. Alginic acid is insoluble in water but the salts obtained
with sodium and ammonium are soluble. Sodium potassium or
triethanol amine alginates are used in dental impression
materials
39. Dispensing
The material is supplied as powder in
sealed bulk containers or in weighed small
packets or sachets of plastic or metal foils
for longer storage time.
As per ADA No. 18, there are two types:
• Type I-fast set, with setting time, 1–2 min
• Type II-normal set with setting time 2–4
min.
Type I Type II

Composition of Alginate Impression Powder
42. Gelation Reaction
On mixing the powder with water, a sol is formed and the alginate,
calcium salt and tri sodium phosphate begin to dissolve. Calcium sulphate
rapidly reacts with soluble alginate to produce an insoluble calcium alginate
gel. The production of calcium alginate gel is so rapid that it does not allow
sufficient working time.
Trisodium phosphate reacts with calcium sulphate in preference to
the soluble alginate to give a precipitate of calcium phosphate. This reaction
delays the supply of calcium ions required for the gelation reaction and
thereby increases the working time.
2 Na3PO4 + 3CaSO4 → Ca3 (PO4)2 + 3 Na2SO4
43. Gelation Reaction
When all the sodium phosphate has reacted,
the calcium ions begin to react with soluble alginate
quickly to produce calcium alginate as a gel. As the
reaction proceeds, the degree of cross linking
increases and gel develops elastic properties.
The set material is an intermeshed brush heap structure of fibrils of
calcium alginate enclosing unreacted sodium alginate, excess water, filler
particles and reaction by products. Calcium ions replace two sodium ions of
NanAlg molecules. This cross-linking causes gelation.
45. Biological Properties
• They are nontoxic and nonirritant to the oral tissues (alginate-has
diatomaceous earth as filler has finely divided silica particles.
Some of these particles are present in the alginate dust which
rises from the tin or container, after while tumbling, fluffing or
shaking. These silica particles are found to be a source of health
hazard, silicosis if inhaled.
Remedy: The container is allowed to settle for a while after
tumbling, then the container is held away from the face while
opening to avoid breathing the dust or use dust free alginates.
• They have pleasant taste and odour.
46. Rheological properties
• Gelation time
It is the time from the beginning of mixing until the gelation occurs. It is measured as
the time from the beginning of mixing until the material is no longer tacky or sticky
when it is touched with clean, dry fingers. Based on the gelation time, there are two
types of alginates.
Type I–2 minutes)
Type II–normal set (2–4 minutes)
Control of gelation time
• By altering the w/p ratio or mixing time (not recommended as these methods affect
other properties).
• By adding retarder trisodium phosphate to the material, as controlled by the
manufacturer.
• By decreasing the temperature of mixing water to 18°C or 20°C, setting time can be
increased and this method is used in the clinics.
47. Elastic recovery and permanent
deformation
These materials are classified as elastic but they are not perfectly
elastic. They undergo a small amount of deformation known as permanent set
due to their visco elastic behavior. It is measured as the percentage of
deformation that occurs in a cylindrical sample after it is compressed by 10%
strain for 30 seconds. According to ADA No. 18, it should be less than 3%.
Elastic recovery (ER) >100–3 or >97%
It is a time dependent property and is a function of
• Percentage compression
• Time under compression
• Time after removal of compressive load
• Severity of undercuts
48. Gel Strength
According to ADA specification No. 18, it should be more
than 0.343 MPa (about 0.5–0.8 MPa).
Factors affecting strength:
• Decrease in w/p ratio within limits, increases strength
• Both under or over spatulation decrease strength
• Higher rate of loading increase strength
49. Tear strength
Varies from 300–700 gm/cm2.
Hence thickness should be between 3–5 mm.
Flexibility
According to ADA specificatoin No. 18, it should be between 5–20%. It is
measured as the amount of strain produced when a sample is stressed
between 100–1000 gm/cm2. Most alginates have values of 12–14%.
50. Dimensional stability
These are dimensionally unstable due to syneresis and imbibition, so cast
should be poured immediately after recording the impression.
Minor properties
• Compatible with gypsum dye materials
• Electroplating cannot be done
• Trays used should be perforated for mechanical retention
• Shelf-life is quite short: They deteriorate rapidly at higher temperatures.
Therefore, it is better not to stock the material more than one year and it
should be stored in cool dry environment.
52. Instruments
Plastic mixing bowl, alginate mixing spatula with curved end and perforated
tray of suitable size.
Proportioning
The container of the powder should be shaken before use, to get uniform distribution
of components. Water powder ratio is taken 3:1 by volume as per manufacturer’s instruction
using the measures supplied for examples,
• For maxillary impressions-2 scoops of powder (15 g) + 2 measure of water (48 ml)
• For mandibular impressions-1 scoop of powder (7.5 g) + 1 measure of water (24 ml).
53. Mixing
Mechanical mixing instruments are supplied by manufacturers which have controls of
speed and time of mixing. This gives reproducible mix.
Measured powder is
shifted into a clean
rubber bowl
measured quantity of
water is added
mixed with a vigorous
figure 8 motion or
stropped between the
blade of the spatula and
sides of the mixing bowl
intermittent rotation of
the bowl in the opposite
(anticlockwise) direction
Mix is collected and
again stropped
repeatedly to form
homogeneous
conistancy
Hand mixing
Mixing time is about 45 seconds.
54. Under spatulation
• Inadequate wetting and lack of homogeneity
• Mix will be grainy and poor recording of details and mechanical properties.
Over spatulation
• Reduction in working time
• Reduction in strength due to destruction of gel fibrils as they form and intermesh.
The final mix should be smooth and creamy that does not drip off the
spatula when it is raised from the bowl.
55. Loading Tray
The mixed alginate is transferred to a perforated tray by using mixing spatula and
is generally added to the posterior portion of the tray and pushed towards anterior portion.
Impression recording
The loaded tray is carried to the patients mouth to record the impression. The
posterior portion of the tray is usually seated first then the anterior portion. The tray
should be held gently until the alginate sets.
Removal of Impression
After the seal between impression and peripheral tissue is broken, the tray
and the impression should be removed with a single sudden jerk to
minimize the permanent deformation.
56. Disinfection of impression
• It should be washed under running tap water and excess water should be
shaken off.
• The impression can be disinfected by immersing it in 1% sodium
hypochlorite or 2% glutaraldehyde solution or iodophor for 10 minutes.
• The disinfectants can also be sprayed on the impression.
Construction of cast
Cast should be poured immediately as they are not dimensionally
stable, due to syneresis and imbibition.
58. • The instruments must be absolutely clean. Small amounts of
gypsum impurities left in the bowl, will accelerate the reaction.
• After tumbling, the powder container, the dust coming out
should not be inhaled which may lead to health hazard.
• Correct water/powder ratio as specified by the manufacturer is
to be followed. Variation in W/P ratio effects setting time,
permanent deformation, flexibility and strength.
• Air should not be incorporated during mixing.
• Both under and over spatulation should be avoided.
• The temperature of water used for mixing should be between
18–23°C.
59. • The thickness of the impression should be 3–5 mm to avoid
tearing of the material.
• Tray should not be disturbed during gelation.
• Impression should be held in the mouth for at least 2–3 minutes
after the material has gelled, because strength and elasticity of
the gel increases with time thus permitting superior
reproduction of undercuts.
• Dislodge the impression with a single sudden jerk.
• Cast should be poured immediately. For shorter periods it can be
stored in 100% humidity or its surface can be covered with damp
napkin or wet cotton.
61. • Reproduces excellent surface details
• High elastic recovery
• Records undercuts fairly accurately
• Comfortable to the patient
• Hygienic since fresh material is used each time
• Not very expensive
• Easy manipulation procedure.
65. • It is used to record the impressions of dentulous arches in
preparation of crowns and bridges, partial dentures to limited
extent.
• To record preliminary impression in preparation of complete
dentures.
• To record the impression in orthodontia to prepare study
models
• To record the impression to construct athletic mouth
protectors
• For duplicating cast and models.
67. LAMINATE TECHNIQUE
(AGAR–ALGINATE
COMBINATION TECHNIQUE)
After injecting the syringe agar
on to the area to be recorded, an
impression tray containing a mix of
chilled alginate that will bond with the
agar is positioned over it. The alginate
gels by a chemical reaction, whereas
the agar gels through contact with the
cool alginate, rather than the water
circulating through the tray.
Advantages
1. The syringe agar gives better details
than alginate.
2. Less air bubbles.
3. Water cooled trays are not required and
therefore more convenient.
4. It sets faster than the regular agar
technique.
68. WET FIELD TECHNIQUE
• In this technique the areas to be recorded are actually flooded
with warm water.
• Then the syringe material is introduced quickly, liberally, and in
bulk to cover the occlusal and/or incisal areas only.
• While the syringe material is still liquid, the tray material is
seated. The hydraulic pressure of the viscous tray materials
forces the fluid syringe hydrocolloid down into the areas to be
recorded.
• This motion displaces the syringe materials as well as blood
and debris throughout the sulcus.

83. AN IMPRESSION MATERIAL SUSTAINS SOME DEFORMATION AS IT IS REMOVED
FROM THE MOUTH BUT IT MUST REBOUND TO ITS PRE- REMOVAL
DIMENSIONS.
An impression with a sufficiently high elastic limit should
not sustain permanent deformation.
The elastic properties of these elastomeric impression
materials improve with an increase in curing time in
the mouth
An extra time of 1 or 2 min before removal may be
beneficial.
