DENTAL IMPRESSION CURETTE

摘要

The invention relates to a dental impression curette for production of dental impressions by means of a curable impression material, with an impression shell (10) adapted to the shape of the human upper jaw or lower jaw and intended to hold the impression material. Said impression shell (10) for nondestructive removal of the curable impression material having the dental impression can be broken down into at least two portions. The impression curette has saliva-suction means (64) which extends on the inner edge region facing the tongue and/or on the outer edge region facing the cheek or lip, and is detachably connected to the outer and/or inner side wall (16). To improve adaptation, a resilient and/or deformable sealing and compensation member (48) is provided which produces fluid-tight contact between the impression shell (10) and the mucous membrane or the gum.
