Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Mixed alginate should be loaded into the impression tray in large increments as quickly as possible.The more small increments are added to the tray,the greater the chance for entrapped air.The tray should be loaded until the alginate is even with the tops of the sides of the tray.A wet,gloved finger is used to smooth the surface of the alginate and to create a shallow trough over the ridge area of the alginate that reduces the chance for entrapped air and also helps orient the tray when it is seated.
