Materials matter: The benefits of our VPS chemistry

All VPS is hydrophobic on its own.
3M™ Imprint™ 4 VPS Impression Material uses a unique and synergistic system that combines proven surfactant with a novel wetting enabler to achieve hydrophilicity.

Control - Enough working time

Due to the unique chemistry, the setting time doesn't start until the end of the working time. That means you'll have enough time to load and seat the tray, whether you use a 1-step or 2-step impressioning technique.
Speed - Less chair time

Less stress for patients! The shortest intra-oral setting time of 1:15 min among leading VPS fast-setting impression materials due to active self-warming technology. This speeds up the setting reaction which means shorter chair time.
Hydrophilicity for accurate detail

Imprint 4 material is hydrophilic and displaces moisture right from the start in the unset state. This allows the material to reproduce accurate details even in a moist environment—giving you ultimate precision and confidence.
