Identium® impression material offers a new chemistry that combines the advantages of both vinylpolysiloxane and polyether into a formulation termed Vinylsiloxanether® or VSXE®. Identium offers three viscosities (heavy, medium, and light) available in regular and fast set and packaged in 1:1 automix cartridges. Identium is odorless, tasteless, and offers high elastic properties that promote easy removal and dimensionally accurate recovery. Using the one-step, double mix technique, Identium light- and heavy-body materials are indicated for crown, bridge, inlay, onlay, veneer, denture, and implant impressions. Identium medium body is intended for use with the one-step monophase or double-mix technique for impressions in implant and denture/partial denture cases. Identium Fast impression materials have a working time of 1:15 and an intraoral setting time of 2:15 for a total setting time of 3:30. Each package contains two cartridges of material with 6 or 12 mixing tips. Identium Fast set was evaluated by 13 consultants who took 206 impressions. This impression material received a 90% clinical rating. Product Features
