INTRODUCTION :
Die is the positive reproduction of the form
of a prepared tooth in any suitable substance.
A die must be an accurate reproduction of the
prepared tooth both in
 
dimensions and surface
details.
It must represent all of the prepared surfaces,
including the margins and a reasonable amount
of the uncut apical position of the tooth.
 
A die must be made of a material that is
Dense
Hard
Capable of being used in the
production of wax patterns and in the
fitting and finishing of castings without
undue risk of damage to its surface.
 
  
Because direct fabrication of
patterns for extracoronal restorations in the
mouth is
inconvenient
Difficult
Time consuming
Virtually impossible
, practically all wax
patterns are made in the laboratory with the
indirect technique.
 
IDEAL REQUISITES OF A DIE MATERIAL :
1.
Die material should be 
compatible
with the impression materials.
2.
Dimensional accuracy and stability –
material should remain dimensiona-
lly stable on storage.
 
3
. Reproduction of detail – The ability to
reproduce fine detail and sharp margins
is essential.
 
4.
Mechanical properties – High strength
is important.
5.
Color-Good color contrast with other
materials being used.
 
5.
Toughness -To allow burnishing of foil and
resist breakage.
6.
Easy and quick manipulation and rapid
fabrication.
7.
Non-injurious to health by touch or inhalation.
8.
All surfaces must be accurately duplicated and
no bubbles or voids can be accepted.
9.
 Economical.
 
CLASSIFICATION OF DIE MATERIALS :
1. Inorganic materials
a.
Die stone, based on calcium sulfate hemihydrate Eg. Velmix
b.
Dental cement – zinc silicophosphate
c.
Ceramic materials, fired at 600

2. Metallic materials
a.

b.

ii.

Dental gypsum products are available in 5 forms (ADA Types I to V)
Type I
 
– Impression plaster
Type II
 
– Model plaster
Type III
 
– Dental stone (Class I stone or Hydrocal)
Type IV
 – High-strength dental stone (class II stone, densite, or
improved stone)
Type V 
– High strength, high expansion stone.
 
The die stone is relatively
*Inexpensive
*Easy to use
*Compatible with all impression
materials.
Disadvantage
*
 Susceptibility to abrasion during the
carving of the wax pattern.
 
ADVANTAGES
 
DIE STONE
 
*  Gypsum hardeners
, such as aqueous colloidal silica
or soluble resin restorations, can be used instead of
water during mixing of the stone.
*   Resistance to abrasion is increased by approximately
100%.
* 
Disadvantage 
is the slightly increased setting
expansion.
 
Variations in Die techniques and materials :
 
*   Several means are used to increase the resistance to
abrasion.
 
 
In this the die material and the investing
medium have a comparable composition.
          A commercial gypsum – bonded material
called divestment is mixed with a colloidal silica
liquid.
          The die is made from this mix and the wax
pattern is constructed on it.
 
Die stone – investment combination
 
 
Divestment is a gypsum-bonded material, it is not
recommended for high-fusing alloys.
“Detail reproduction, contact angle and die hardness
of elastomeric impression and gypsum die material
combinations.”
 
This study compared the surface detail
parameters, interfacial contact angle and die hardness
for some combinations of polyvinyl siloxanes,
polyether, polysulfide and reversible hydrocolloid
impression materials and type IV, Type V and resin
reinforced – type IV stone.
 
1.
Adequate detail reproduction of prepared teeth may be
achieved with the combination of any of the elastomeric
impression materials with any of the die stone materials
tested.
2.
When using polyvinyl siloxane or polyether impression
material, type IV-resin reinforced die stone may produce dies
that are less scratch resistant on the surface than the type IV
die stone used in this study.
3.
No overall combination of die and impression materials was
identified as superior to another for all of the surface
properties studied.
 
Electroplated Dies / Electroformed Dies :
 
Used to overcome the poor abrasion resistance
of gypsum.
Advantages
High strength,
Hardness
Abrasion resistance
.
 
The time required to produce a cohesive film
of metal typically 8 hrs

The ease with which a restoration is fabricated
and the accuracy with which it will fit the mouth
is materially affected by the casts and dies.
        So a  die material should be selected that
has
Good dimensional accuracy,
Abrasion resistance and
Ability to reproduce fine detail and sharp
margins.
