ABSTRACT
The aim of this study was to measure and compare the dimensional accuracy of stone casts of a partially edentulous mandibular arch made by two condensation silicones, two addition silicones and three impression techniques (1-step putty/light-body, 2-step putty/light-body and monophase technique). A partially edentulous standard stainless steel mandibular arch cast was obtained with reference points on the permanent mandibular right and left canines, and permanent mandibular right and left second molars. The anteroposterior distances (between the mandibular left canine and second molar and between the mandibular right canine and second molar) and transverse distances (between the mandibular left and right canines and between the mandibular left and right second molars) of stainless steel cast were measured by a microscope at 30× magnification and 0.5 µm accuracy. All impressions were made with condensation or addition silicones. The 1- and 2-step putty/light-body impressions were accomplished with putty and light-body materials and the monophase impressions with light-body material only. After the impression procedures, accuracy of each material and technique was assessed measuring the stone casts poured (n=5) from the impressions, by the same microscope. The differences between the values of stone cast and stainless steel cast were calculated, presented as percentages and analyzed statistically by two-way ANOVA and the means compared by Tukey's test (α=0.05). All distances measured on stone casts showed altered dimensions with significantly negative linear changes (shrinkage) as compared to those of the stainless steel cast. The stone casts made from the addition silicones were dimensionally more accurate. No differences were found among the impression techniques.
RESUMO
O objetivo deste estudo foi mensurar e comparar a precisão dimensional de modelos de gesso de um arco mandibular parcialmente edêntulo feitos a partir de dois silicones por condensação, dois silicones por adição e três técnicas de moldagem (dupla mistura, reembasamento e moldeira individual). Um modelo metálico padrão de um arco mandibular parcialmente edêntulo foi obtido com pontos de referência nos caninos mandibulares permanentes esquerdo e direito, e segundo molares mandibulares permanentes esquerdo e direito. As distâncias anteroposteriores (entre o canino e segundo molar mandibulares esquerdos e entre o canino e segundo molar mandibulares direitos) e as distâncias transversais (entre os caninos mandibulares esquerdo e direito e entre os segundos molares mandibulares esquerdo e direito) do modelo metálico foram mensuradas através de um microscópio com 30x de aumento e 0,5 µm de precisão. Todas moldagens foram feitas com silicones por condensação e adição. As técnicas de dupla mistura e reembasamento foram realizadas com materiais nas viscosidades massa e leve e a técnica da moldeira individual somente com material leve. Após os procedimentos de moldagem, a precisão de cada material e técnica foi aferida medindo os modelos de gesso vazados (n=5) dos moldes, sob o mesmo microscópio. As diferenças entre os valores dos modelos de gesso e do modelo metálico foram calculadas, apresentadas como porcentagens e analisadas estatisticamente através da análise de variância e teste de Tukey (α=0,05). Todas as distâncias mensuradas nos modelos de gesso apresentaram dimensões alteradas com alterações lineares negativas (contração) significativas quando comparadas as medidas do modelo metálico. Os modelos de gesso feitos a partir de silicones por adição foram dimensionalmente mais precisos. Não foram encontradas diferenças entre as técnicas de moldagem.
