[QUOTE="Brandon Patrick, post: 285875, member: 20621"] I like using light cured materials. I see no shrinkage or warping in them. I mostly use triad since I have a triad light cure unit, but I also like Primotec's metablue (it cures within a minute or two, but if allowed to get too hot I've noticed warping). If using Primotec's patterns I would recommend using a light cure unit that doesn't generate heat. I've tried many of their other materials in the Triad unit and they do not do well. If verification jig doesn't seat passively in the mouth then doctor should know a new impression is required. Some labs may send a custom tray and verification jig together just for this situation. There's a chance that distortion may have occurred in the first impression, or impression copings could shift very slightly, or analogs weren't tightened snug. Any number of issues are possible and full arch restorations aren't something anyone wants to redo over one simple step from the start. If you explain that you don't want to waste their time, and maybe mention having to charge for the remake then you'll get that new impression faster than you can finish that conversation! :p [/QUOTE]
