DSI Tracing Sticks
Ideal for extending borders on dental impression trays, DSI Tracing sticks offer excellent viscosity for capturing the full depth of the sulcus. Low-fusing in nature, these tracing sticks only require a working temperature of approximately 45°. Thus they remain an invaluable tool for dental professionals. Using DSI Tracing Sticks for dentate trays is an excellent way to address any areas where teeth have been extracted. Furthermore, this material provides a great solution for increasing the amount of lingual extension on a stock tray. Simply apply the tracing sticks to any under-extended sections and you will be getting a superior definition in sulcal depth as well as increased support for extensions.
DSI Tracing Sticks is an impression material often incorporated into the process of creating complete dentures. Although this compound does not form the entire impression, it does aid in making a proper seal along the sulcus area for greater retention and accuracy. As such, it plays an important role in fabricating precise dentures.
Product Details
In the process of making complete dentures, it is very important to attain a proper retention level. DSI Tracing Sticks are proven to be incredibly reliable for this kind of job. There also has not yet been an effective substitute for recording accurate peripheral seals during the important step of creating a denture's border molding.
