Tissue management impresssion material and dispensing system

Abstract

Disclosed herein are a tissue management impression material and a method of application into the sulcus of a patient, whereby the tissue management impression material is a part of the final dental impression made when manufacturing a dental device, such as a crown.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An inter oral tip, comprising:
 a cannula configured to be removably attached to a dental dispenser;   wherein the cannula includes an axis transverse to an axis of the dental dispenser;   wherein the cannula is rotatable about the transverse axis to provide directional flow of the dispensed material.   
     
     
         2 . The inter oral tip of  claim 1 , wherein the cannula includes an internal diameter of about 0.4 millimeters to about 0.9 millimeters. 
     
     
         3 . The inter oral tip of  claim 1 , wherein the transverse axis intersects the axis of the dental dispenser at an angle of about 1 to about 90 degrees. 
     
     
         4 . The inter oral tip of  claim 3 , wherein the transverse axis intersects the axis of the dental dispenser at an angle of between about 30 degrees to about 45 degrees. 
     
     
         5 . The inter oral tip of  claim 1 , wherein the cannula includes polypropylene. 
     
     
         6 . The inter oral tip of  claim 5 , wherein the cannula consists of polypropylene. 
     
     
         7 . The inter oral tip of  claim 1 , further comprising an appendage attached to an end of the cannula, the appendage including a channel configured to direct a material flow exiting the cannula. 
     
     
         8 . The inter oral tip of  claim 7 , wherein the channel is further configured to direct the material flow behind the direction of travel. 
     
     
         9 . The inter oral tip of  claim 7 , wherein the appendage is disc shaped.
