    This document discusses the evolution of die systems used in dentistry. It begins by stating that dies are positive reproductions of prepared teeth and must reproduce the teeth accurately without bubbles or voids. The document then covers various die materials like gypsum, resin, and electroplated dies. It classifies die systems as either working casts with separate removable dies or solid casts with individual dies. Specific post-pour and pre-pour die systems are described like pindex, DVA model, Di-Lok, and Zeiser. Milling and CAD/CAM technology are also mentioned. The conclusion emphasizes that technological advances help make dental work easier and more precise to benefit patients.

    Is it that important?
    YES!!!!

    YES/

    REASONS
    NO/ LESS ACCESIBILITY TO PROXIMAL
    SURFACES

    INCOMPLETE PROXIMAL SURFACE

    DIE SECTIONING

    DEFINITION

    DIE : A POSITIVE REPRODUCTION OF PREPARED TEETH


    AND CONSISTS OF A SUITABLE HARD SUBSTANCE OF A
    SUFFICIENT ACCURACY.

    REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DIE


    PREPARATION
    Reproduce the prepared tooth exactly.
    No bubbles or void.
    The remaining unprepared tooth structure immediately
    cervical to
    the finish line should be 0.5 to 1mm
    visible.
    Sectioning should not damage the teeth surface.
    Adequate access to the margin is imperative.

    MATERIALS
    It includes :
    Gypsum
    Type4-Dental Stone(High strength)
    Type5 Dental Stone(High strength
    and high expansion)

    Resin
    Epoxy Resin
    Polyurethane

    Electroplated Dies
    Copper plated
    Silver plated

    Flexible Die Materials


    Metal sprayed die

    removable die

    POST POUR TECHNIQUE

    pindex
    - single dowel
    - double straight dowel

    PRE POUR TECHNIQUE

    solid cast with individual


    die

    WORKING CAST WITH A SEPARATE


    DIE

    SEPARATE DIE

    STRAIGHT DOWEL PIN


    The brass dowel pin is one of the
    most accurate dowel types in
    terms of resisting horizontal
    displacement and the second
    lowest in vertical deviation of four
    types of removable dies.

    CURVED DOWEL PIN

    DIE IS REMOVED BY PRESSING THE DOWEL


    A-Dowel pin,B-Position bar,C- Straight pins
    D-Die

    PINDEX SYSTEM(Coltene/Whaledent,Mahwah,NJ)

    In the pindex system a reverse drill press is used to


    create a master cast with dies that can be removed
    and replaced repeatedly with great precision.

    DIE CUTTING SAW

    DIE LOK SYSTEM


    Snap apart plastic tray
    with internal orienting
    grooves and notches to
    reassemble working casts
    and dies are used

    CAD CAM TECHNOLOGY

    MILLING

    After the milling, final staining and glazing is done and the
    crown is fired in an porcelain furnace.

    Conclusion
    Technological advance in dentistry is all to make our
    work ease and precise to serve the best for our patients.
    All we need is to open our heart and mind to recieve
    such help from science.
