INTENDED USE
A vinyl poly siloxane material to be used as a medical device for the purposes of creating, via impression, a reproduction of tooth andgum structure. Accur8™ VPS Impression Material from Brasseler U.S.A. Dental, LLC, is the first 3rd generation vinyl poly siloxane impression material. Accur8’s advanced 3rd generation chemistry provides true hydroactive properties, higher tear strength and dimensional stability. In addition, each viscosity is matched to all others resulting in a superior impression, regardless of the technique utilized. Accur8 also exhibits the most efficient working and set timesto minimize chair time and the potential for inaccuracies. Accur8’s dispensing is even advanced in that Accur8 flows more easily through a conventional mixing tip as compared to previous generation impression materials, regardless of the viscosity. 3rd generation Accur8 will consistently provide you with the most efficient and accurate impression.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR AUTO-MIX CARTRIDGES
- Insert the flange at the rear of the cartridge into the space provided at the front of the impression gun – depress the gun lever to lock the cartridge in place.
- Twist off and dispose of the cartridge shipping cap.
- Attach a mixing tip and twist 1/4 turn to lock it into position; the mixing is done automatically inside the mixing tip.
- Before filling the tray, it is recommended to discard the initially mixed (peasized) amount of the material. Check to ensure both base and catalyst are expressing freely.
- Gently squeeze the impression gun handle to mix and dispense the impression material. Release handle to stop the flow.
- Leave the used auto-mix tip on the cartridge as a self sealer after each use. For subsequent dispensing remove and discard the sealer tip. Proceed with steps 3 through 6.

VINYL POLY SILOXANE IMPRESSION MATERIAL CONSIDERATIONS
- Allow impression material to reach room temperature prior to use.
- Handling retraction cord with latex gloves may subsequently prevent the setting of the impression material if direct contact occurs.
- Prior to taking impression, use pre-impression cleansing gel to decontaminate the preparation site.
PLEASE NOTE
- Sulpha-based drugs may inhibit the set time of VPS material.
- For model fabrication, Accur8 is ideally poured two hours after the impression has been taken. However, Accur8 can be poured sooner if the impression is placed in hot water for ten minutes to allow for degassing to occur.
STORAGE
Vinyl Poly Siloxane impression material should be stored at room
