Materials Required:

• Kalabhai Kaldent Type II Dental Plaster (3kg)
• Clean mixing bowl
• Spatula or mechanical mixer
• Measuring cup
• Distilled or tap water (room temperature)
• Vibrator (optional)

Steps for Mixing:

Preparation:

• Ensure all materials and tools are clean and dry before starting.
• Measure the required amount of dental plaster powder as per your needs.

Water to Powder Ratio:

• The recommended water to powder ratio is approximately 50ml of water for every 100g of plaster.
• Adjust the quantity of water and powder based on the volume needed for your specific task.

Mixing Process:

• Pour the measured amount of water into the mixing bowl.
• Gradually add the plaster powder to the water, allowing it to soak for about 30 seconds. This helps in minimizing air bubbles.
• Mix the plaster using a spatula or mechanical mixer. Stir slowly at first, then vigorously, until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps. This should take about 1-2 minutes.
• If available, use a vibrator to remove any remaining air bubbles by gently tapping the bowl on the vibrating surface.

Pouring the Plaster:

• Immediately pour the mixed plaster into the impression or mold. Start pouring from one corner and allow the plaster to flow to avoid trapping air bubbles.
• If using for flasking or securing a cast to an articulator, ensure even and complete coverage.

Setting Time:

• Allow the plaster to set for about 10-15 minutes. The initial setting time can vary based on room temperature and humidity.
• Do not disturb the plaster during this period to ensure a smooth and accurate set.

Final Setting and Removal:

• After the initial set, the plaster will continue to harden. It usually takes about 30 minutes to reach a usable hardness.
• Carefully remove the cast or denture from the impression or mold once the plaster is fully set.

Cleanup:

• Clean all mixing tools and bowls immediately after use with water to prevent the plaster from hardening on them.
• Dispose of any unused mixed plaster according to local regulations.

Storage:

• Store the unused Kalabhai Kaldent Type II Dental Plaster in a cool, dry place, tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption.
• Ensure the product is kept away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
