Abstract

Purpose:

The aim of this in vivo study was to compare the single-step border molding technique using injectable heavy viscosity addition silicone with sectional border molding technique using low fusing impression compound by evaluating the retention of heat cure trial denture bases.

Materials and Methods:

Ten completely edentulous patients in need of prostheses were included in this study. Two border molding techniques, single-step (Group 1) and sectional (Group 2), were compared for retention. Both border molding techniques were performed in each patient. In both techniques, definitive wash impression was made with light viscosity addition silicone. The final results were analyzed using paired t-test to determine whether significant differences existed between the groups.

Results:

The t-value (3.031) infers that there was a significant difference between Group 1 and Group 2 (P = 0.014). The retention obtained in Group 2 (mean = 9.05 kgf) was significantly higher than that of Group 1 (mean = 8.26 kgf).

Conclusion:

Sectional border molding technique proved to be more retentive as compared to single-step border molding although clinically the retention appeared comparable.

<title>INTRODUCTION</title>
<p>In complete denture prosthodontics, the final impression stage plays a pivotal role in the success of a complete denture. The final impression procedure for a complete denture entails capturing the vestibule through border molding procedure and then making an impression of the edentulous arch.[
<xref rid="ref1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
] Border molding a custom tray to adapt it closely to the tissues of the vestibule before making the final impression is a time-honored procedure in complete denture prosthodontics. The original material used for border molding was low fusing impression compound, introduced in 1907 by the Green brothers.[
<xref rid="ref2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>
] The technique for border molding using low fusing impression compound is usually divided into steps where sections of tray borders are molded in separate applications.</p>
<p>Woelfel
<italic>et al</italic>
.[
<xref rid="ref3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>
] have determined that seven dentists required an average of 17 insertions when utilizing low fusing impression compound for border molding in the same patient. Accurate impressions were achieved, but border molding with low fusing impression compound is time-consuming and tedious.</p>
<p>Ideally, the material used for border molding when it is in plastic state should contact the entire vestibular sulcus area at one insertion.[
<xref rid="ref4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
] A material which will allow simultaneous molding of all borders has two general advantages: (1) The number of insertions of the trays for border molding could be reduced and (2) development of all borders simultaneously avoids propagation of errors caused by a mistake in one section affecting the border contours in another section. Incremental border molding using low fusing compound does not meet this prerequisite since only a part of the functional depth of the vestibular sulcus and associated musculature molds the periphery of the tray during each insertion. Another limitation is the short manipulation time of low fusing compound which does not allow sufficient time for vestibular tissues to act and mold the borders of the custom tray.</p>
<p>Finally, with this material, there is a fear of burning the soft intraoral tissues due to the heat used to soften the compound, especially by an inexperienced operator.</p>
<p>These limitations led to the use of elastomers for complete denture impressions. Elastomers exhibit the properties which make them a viable alternative to low fusing impression compound. These include a high degree of accuracy, dimensional stability, ease of manipulation, and adequate working and setting times. The use of polysulfide,[
<xref rid="ref5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>
] polyether,[
<xref rid="ref4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>
<xref rid="ref6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>
<xref rid="ref7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>
] or vinyl polysiloxane putty[
<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
<xref rid="ref9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>
] impression materials for custom tray border molding has been described. The drawbacks of these materials are odor and staining associated with polysulfide, inadequate manipulation time of polyether, and thick and over extended borders[
<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
] obtained with putty viscosity of polyvinyl siloxane (PVS).</p>
<p>Recent studies[
<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] investigated different techniques and materials of border molding such as low fusing impression compound, putty PVS, putty condensation silicone, and medium viscosity PVS. There was no statistically significant difference in the retention of complete denture bases in which border molding was accomplished in a single-step using elastomeric impression materials than those in which the border molding was performed in sections using low fusing impression compound.</p>
<p>The purpose of this
<italic>in vivo</italic>
study was to compare the single-step border molding technique using injectable heavy viscosity addition silicone with sectional border molding technique using low fusing impression compound by evaluating the retention of heat polymerized trial denture bases.</p>
<p>The null hypothesis was that the retention of the heat polymerized trial denture bases fabricated with single-step border molding technique using injectable heavy viscosity addition silicone will be similar to the retention of heat polymerized trial denture bases fabricated with sectional border molding technique using low fusing impression compound.</p>

<title>MATERIALS AND METHODS</title>
<p>Ten completely edentulous patients seeking prosthodontic rehabilitation were randomly selected as test subjects from the Prosthodontic Department of the institution with ages ranging from 50 to 60 years. Inclusion criteria were as follows: Well-formed residual alveolar ridges, no severe undercuts or bony exostosis, firm mucosa all over the denture bearing area with no signs of inflammation, ulceration or hyperplasia, absence of systemic disease, average quantity and consistency of saliva and normal temporomandibular joint function. Extremely high palatal vaults were excluded from the study. The protocol of the study was approved by the Institutional Review Board. An informed consent was obtained from all the patients and a single operator performed all the procedures.</p>
<p>For each patient, primary impression of the upper arch was made using an irreversible hydrocolloid impression material (Tropicalgin, Zhermack, Italy) in a suitable sized perforated stock tray and poured in dental stone (Kalstone, Kalabhai Pvt. Ltd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, India) to obtain the primary cast. The cast was properly outlined and relieved for fabrication of custom impression trays using autopolymerizing acrylic resin (DPI-RR Cold Cure, The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, India). Two identical trays were made for each patient. Each tray was tried in the mouth and peripheries reduced so that they were 2 to 3 mm short of the tissue reflection. It was ensured that the distal end contained both the hamular notches and extended 2 mm beyond the vibrating line.</p>
<sec id="sec2-1">
<title>Technique 1: Sectional border molding</title>
<p>Using one of the custom trays, border molding was completed by the operator with the conventional method with low fusing impression compound (DPI Pinnacle, The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, India). Buccal and labial molding was carried out by adding softened low fusing impression compound in sections to the tray borders and moving the lips and cheeks upward, forward, and downward. Posterior palatal seal was functionally recorded by applying the softened compound from one hamular notch to other and instructing the patient in valsalva maneuver[
<xref rid="ref13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>
] [
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F1">Figure 1a</xref>
]. Any excess material flowing onto the ridge area was scrapped using a Bard-Parker blade (Aspen Surgical Products, Caledonia, USA). After the wax spacer was removed, holes were made in the tray over the median palatal raphe, anterolateral and posterolateral regions of the hard palate[
<xref rid="ref1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>
] for relief as well as to aid in the retention of the impression material. A tray adhesive (Universal Tray Adhesive, Zhermack, Italy) was applied to the inner surface of the tray. This was followed by making a definitive impression using light viscosity addition silicone (Aquasil Ultra LV, Dentsply, USA) [

<title>Technique 2: Single-step border molding</title>
<p>The second tray was used for border molding with an injectable heavy viscosity PVS (Aquasil Ultra Heavy, Dentsply, USA). The tray border was painted with a tray adhesive (Universal Tray Adhesive, Zhermack, Italy) and allowed to dry. The heavy viscosity addition silicone was injected onto the tray borders and across the posterior palatal seal area. Labial/buccal borders and posterior palatal seal were molded in a manner similar to sectional border molding technique. The tray was removed after the impression material had completely polymerized and the borders were examined for accuracy [

A tray adhesive (Universal Tray Adhesive, Zhermack, Italy) was also applied to the inner surface of the tray. After the adhesive had dried up, the tray was loaded with light viscosity addition silicone (Aquasil Ultra LV, Dentsply, USA) to complete the definitive impression [

<p>The impressions were boxed, and the casts were poured. Denture bases were waxed on each cast and coded. Prefabricated stainless steel hooks were attached to anterior palatal region of the waxed up bases approximately corresponding to a line joining the distal surfaces of cuspids. The casts with waxed-up bases were flasked, placed in the same flask compress, and processed in a curing unit. The same mix of acrylic resin (DPI Heat cure, The Bombay Burmah Trading Corporation Ltd., Mumbai, Maharashtra, India) was used for both maxillary heat polymerized trial denture bases. After they had been processed, deflasked, and decast, the bases were carefully finished and only excess acrylic resin flash was removed from the borders. The finished bases were inserted, checked in the mouth with pressure-indicating paste, and adjusted as necessary [

<title>Measuring the retention of two denture bases</title>
<p>A digital force meter (Extech Instruments Corporation, MA, USA) was used to record the retention of the denture base [
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F3">Figure 3b</xref>
]. The device was prepared to display the readings in kgf. The patient stood upright with head position standardized with the help of a cephalostat such that the maxilla was parallel to the floor and a force was directed perpendicularly to evaluate the retention [
<xref ref-type="fig" rid="F4">Figure 4</xref>
]. Force meter is a spring-loaded device that engaged onto the hook of the heat polymerized trial denture base and force was applied by pulling it downward while being held in the palm of the operator. The retention of the denture base was determined by the force value that was displayed on the force meter screen at the moment the denture base got dislodged. Three readings were taken for each border molding technique and an average was calculated. The data were tabulated and statistically analyzed to evaluate the difference in retention of the dentures bases obtained from two border molding techniques. For each patient, the retention of the two denture bases was also evaluated clinically by directing the patient to perform functional movements such as opening the mouth wide, side to side movement of mandible, making moderate lip and cheek movements, and checking for any dislodgement of the denture bases.[
<xref rid="ref14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>
] The denture bases were also subjected to a dislodgement test by the operator, evaluating the seal on the opposite side by a rolling pressure of the index finger away from the side being checked. The effect of posterior palatal seal was checked in the same manner by applying pressure in the anterior region of the denture bases.[

<title>DISCUSSION</title>
<p>An accurate impression will always ensure satisfactory retention, stability, and comfort in a complete denture patient. There are numerous factors associated with the retention of complete dentures which can be achieved by means of meticulous border molding. There are two techniques documented in literature, the sectional and the single-step border molding. Studies[
<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] have attempted to evaluate and compare the efficacies of these techniques. However, the literature is still equivocal about the efficacy of the two techniques. This study was conducted to investigate the difference in retention resulting from these techniques using methods that ensured precise evaluation of the techniques.</p>
<p>The low fusing impression compound was used for sectional border molding because of its ease of manipulation, availability, popularity, and cost-effectiveness. There have been studies[
<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] in literature comparing low fusing impression compound with putty consistency of elastomeric impression material with varying results. The problems faced with putty consistency of elastomeric impression materials are overextended, thick borders,[
<xref rid="ref10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>
] and short manipulation time to shape it into a rope and placement over the tray borders. In this study, an injectable heavy viscosity PVS was chosen over putty due to its excellent manipulative consistency, adequate flow, dimensional stability and adequate working time.[
<xref rid="ref16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>
] Furthermore, there have been no reports in literature comparing retention of single-step border molding using injectable heavy viscosity PVS with sectional border molding using low fusing impression compound.</p>
<p>Among the various studies,[
<xref rid="ref8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] comparing the retention of two border molding techniques, the common choice for a definitive impression was zinc oxide eugenol in conjunction with sectional border molding and light viscosity addition silicone with single-step border molding. This difference in wash impression materials could contribute to the difference in retention values obtained with two techniques. In this study, this problem was overcome by using light viscosity addition silicone for definitive impression in both techniques to maintain standardization.</p>
<p>Most authors[
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] have attached 0.9 mm stainless steel orthodontic wire loops to the heat polymerized trial denture bases using autopolymerizing acrylic resin. The orthodontic wire of 0.9 mm could flex due to the force applied by the force meter and give inaccurate retention values. This study used a more rigid 1.5 mm prefabricated stainless steel loops that were incorporated into the waxed up trial denture bases leading to a stronger union. Likewise, the position of the loops was shifted to a more anterior location as opposed to the geometrical center used by earlier studies.[
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] The rationale for this alteration was that a more anterior positioning would ensure a force that was directed perpendicular to the denture base as opposed to oblique forces generated when the geometrical center was used for attachment of loop. This was to ensure adherence to the principles/definition of retention.[
<xref rid="ref17" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>
]</p>
<p>The instrument of choice for evaluation of retention was a digital force meter as advocated by Burns
<italic>et al</italic>
.[
<xref rid="ref18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>
] for a more objective assessment.</p>
<p>The results of this study statistically proved that sectional border molding technique was more retentive than single-step border molding technique although clinically the retention appeared to be comparable. This could be attributed to the operator experience with the material. Also, there is more control as well as scope for evaluation and correction with sectional border molding technique. On the other hand, single-step border molding is more technique sensitive as the entire vestibular sulcus and posterior palatal seal area need to be recorded accurately in a single insertion. Rizk[
<xref rid="ref12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>
] demonstrated superior retention with single-step border molding using putty rubber base material. Yarapatineni
<italic>et al</italic>
.[
<xref rid="ref11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>
] obtained comparable retention with two techniques. The results of this study are not in agreement with previous studies which could be attributed to differences in materials and methodology as well as operator skill and experience.</p>
<p>The design of the present study has certain limitations. The retention was evaluated for heat polymerized trial denture bases and not the final dentures. Other limitation of the study is that patient satisfaction score and number of post insertion adjustment appointments required for each border molding technique have not been taken into consideration. Also, a larger sample size could be considered for better extrapolation of results to a clinical scenario.</p>
<p>There are few aspects of complete denture impressions which can be further investigated. Comparing various elastomeric impression materials such as polyether, putty PVS, heavy viscosity PVS, and monophase PVS for accuracy of border molding could be considered for future research. Furthermore, a comparison of retention of mandibular denture bases fabricated with sectional and single-step border molding could be considered. The third area of investigation would be evaluation of patient satisfaction score and number of post insertion adjustment appointments required for both border molding techniques.</p>
