Intended Use
This VPS impression material is intended to be placed on an impression tray and used to reproduce the structure of a patient's teeth and gums in order to produce crowns, bridges, implants and other dental restorations. This product is for professional use only by or on the order of a licensed dentist.
Device Story
System Plus is an addition-reaction vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) silicone impression material. Available in two viscosities (medium and light body), it is applied to an impression tray by a dentist or dental professional to capture the anatomy of teeth and gums. The material sets in the mouth within three minutes, with a total setting time of four minutes. The resulting physical impression serves as a mold for the laboratory fabrication of dental restorations, including crowns, bridges, and implants. The device provides a stable, accurate reproduction of oral structures to facilitate precise dental prosthetic manufacturing.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Physical properties provided include consistency (ISO 4823), working time, time in mouth, total setting time, strain in compression (4.7%), shrinkage (<0.1%), and Shore A hardness (45). No clinical data presented.
Technological Characteristics
Addition-reaction vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) silicone. Two viscosities: Medium Body (Type 2) and Light Body (Type 3). Shore A hardness: 45. Shrinkage: <0.1%. Strain in compression: 4.7%. Complies with ISO 4823 standards for consistency.
Indications for Use
Indicated for use in one-step dental impressions to reproduce teeth and gum structures for the fabrication of crowns, bridges, inlays, partial and complete dentures, denture repairs, implants, and other dental restorations. For use by or on the order of a licensed dentist.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Impression material is a device composed of materials such as alginate or polysulfide intended to be placed on a preformed impression tray and used to reproduce the structure of a patient's teeth and gums.
