Summary
The paper deals with a problem of deformation applied to dentistry when making imprints with precision impression materials such as silicone elastomers. A study of their dimensional variations has been carried out through (i) holographic interferonstry in laser light, (ii) interferometry in white light based upon the channelled spectrum phenomenon. Both high and low-bodied elastomers have been tested. The results indicate the influence of the thickness of the sample on the speed of retraction during the polymerization of the material. Furthermore, external parameters such as the temperature and the hygrometric degree have to be taken into account when making accurate imprints.
