Using 3M™ Filtek™ Easy Match Universal Restorative.
Monophase impression using 3M™ Impregum™ Penta™ Super Quick Polyether Impression Material.
Patient with a fractured crown on second upper molar that needed replacement. Impression was made with 3M™ Impregum™ Penta™ Super Quick Medium Body Polyether Impression Material in the monophase technique.
Initial situation: Second upper molar needs a crown after endodontic treatment. Insufficient filling on adjacent tooth needs to be renewed.
In order to prepare the situation for impression taking, 3M™ Astringent Retraction Paste was used for moisture management.
Impression was taken in the monophase technique using 3M™ Impregum™ Penta™ Super Quick Medium Body Polyether Impression Material. Syringing of the impression material around preparation with the 3M™ Penta™ Elastomer Syringe while the tray was filled simultaneously.
Final impression made with a single-use 3M™ Impression Tray. Due to its self-retentive fleece strip a separate tray adhesive is not required. The impression shows crisp details and a clear circumferential mapping of the preparation line.
Final situation: Monolithic 3M™ Lava™ Esthetic Fluorescent Full-Contour Zirconia crown on the second molar and a renewed filling on the first molar.
