What happens when too much water is used when mixing gypsum for models? - Correct Answer-The mix will be thin and runny and will take longer to set. This creates a model that is considerably weaker. The result is a cast that is weak and brittle. What is another term for a dental model? - Correct Answer- Study casts. What are the three different pouring methods that can be used to create the base or art portion of a cast? - Correct Answer-Double-Pour: Anatomic portion is poured first, then a second mix of plaster is used to prepare the art portion. Box-and-Pour: The impression is surrounded with a box made from boxing wax. Invert-Pour: Mixing one large mixture of plaster or stone and pouring up the impression first, and then placing a base material on a tile or counter to invert the impression in a single step.
