Q. Discuss the uses of Alginate in teeth molds

Answer:

Alginate is an anionic polysaccharide found mainly in brown algae. Alginate is made from two copolymers, guluronic acid and mannuronic acid. Copolymers give alginate its strength and flexibility. Properties such as high viscosity, gelling properties, and high stability make alginate an important industrial polysaccharide.

Explanation:

• Alginate impression materials are the best materials dentists have used for years to make dental impressions of their patients. The primary reasons for choosing alginate impression materials are their skin compatibility and hypoallergenic properties suitable for adolescents.
• This wonderful material is used to make limb casts and other prosthetic body parts. As a result, sculptors and artists began testing the possibility of using this molding material in their works. Alginate molding compound formulations consist of many ingredients. It primarily contains potassium, sodium, or triethanolamine salts, which are the gelling components of artificial alginate.
