A blood culturing technique was utilized to determine the incidence of bacteremia following the making of dental impressions with irreversible hydrocolloid (alginate). The results indicate that bacteremia is not produced by this impression procedure.

A technique using autopolymerizing acrylic resin as a blockout material has been described. This technique greatly simplifies the laboratory construction and insertion phases of the complex interim removable partial denture. It is not suggested that the acrylic blockout replace the wax blockout if a heat-cured denture base is not indicated. Wax should be used if a "sprinkle-on" autopolymerizing acrylic resin is used for the denture base.
