    • Abstract:
      This article describes a quick and simple procedure for removing dental stone casts from elastomeric impressions. Frequently, dental stone casts break at the time of separation because of the rigidity of the impression material. The materials used in this technique are inexpensive and easy to use. When this method is properly used, it simplifies the removal of the cast from the impression, decreasing the chance of fracture of the cast.
