Zhermack Zetaplus 10Kg Bucket

Zetaplus by Zhermack is a condensation silicone elastomeric impression material indicated for final impressions of extraorally fabricated prostheses. The Zetaplus system has been consistent in maintaining its high performance and has been accepted widely for over 25 years. Zhermack Zetaplus is a condensation silicone impression material which is hydro compatible and used for high precision impressions. It is characterized by high initial flowability in the working phase and high rigidity after hardening. It is supplied in a green color and spearmint flavor. It is mostly used in two stage technique but can also be used in single-stage technique with two viscosities. The optimum catalyst dosage increases the working time and reduces contraction. This maintains an ideal balance between working and setting time. With high-activity spheroid filler Synthetic Amorphous Silica (SAS), improved flowability and dimensional stability has been achieved.

Characteristics

• High initial flowability and excellent rigidity after hardening for the putties
• Thixotropy for the washes
• High tear resistance

Advantages

• Excellent relation between rigidity and elasticity
• Ideal working time/setting time ratio
• High flowability and accuracy of wash materials
• Putty and wash materials with the same catalyst (Indurent Gel)

• Clinical working time* (min:s) - 1:15
• Setting time(min:s) - 4:45
• Time in mouth* (min:s) - 3:30

• 1 x 10kg Bucket

• Preparation:

  • Choose the appropriate technique (two-stage or single-stage) based on the clinical requirement.
  • Ensure all instruments are clean and dry before starting.

• Mixing:

  • Dispense the required amount of Zetaplus putty and add the recommended dosage of Indurent Gel catalyst.
  • Mix thoroughly until a uniform color is achieved, ensuring optimal activation.

• Application:

  • For the two-stage technique, use Zetaplus putty as the base impression material, followed by wash material for detailed capture.
  • For the single-stage technique, combine materials with different viscosities to capture precision and support.

• Placement:

  • Load the material onto the impression tray, ensuring even distribution.
  • Insert the tray into the patient’s mouth, maintaining steady pressure for an accurate impression.

• Setting Time:

  • Allow the material to set as per the working and setting time guidelines.
  • Optimal catalyst dosage ensures a perfect balance of time for easy handling and minimal shrinkage.

• Removal and Evaluation:

  • Gently remove the impression tray once the material hardens.
  • Inspect for precision, ensuring high tear resistance and dimensional stability.
