Alginate impression materials are elastic, irreversible hydrocolloid impression materials made from seaweed. They are used to make primary or preliminary impressions of a patient’s teeth and gums to obtain diagnostic study models, which are the positive reproductions of the teeth and surrounding structures. This colloidal material forms a gel when the powder is mixed with water. It solidifies into an elastic mass capable of producing a negative reproduction of the oral cavity (an impression). They are also used to fabricate bleaching trays and mouth guards. Alginate is the most universally utilized impression material in dentistry. Image Alginate is a green-colored, mint flavored alginate and comes in two options Regular Set, Fast Set.
