After impression-making procedures, remnants of Xantopren impression material were found in the gingival crevices in eight of 125 patients. In three of the eight patients, remnants were only discovered subsequent to a systematic exploration with a fine curette. In all eight of the patients in which material was found in the crevice, the location corresponded with defects in the impression itself. Although eight of 125 is not a statistically significant number, it would be nonetheless prudent to consider a routine curettage of abutment sulci after impression-making. This procedure is even more strongly recommended should a defect be detected in the crevicular region of the impression. Impressions should remain in the mouth until full setting and maximum tear strength is reached. Strict adherence to the manufacturers' instructions is necessary.
