Model duplication
List of Materials:
BIOPLAST® 2.0/3.0 mm for plaster study model
COPYPLAST® 1.5/2.0 mm for resin study model
1. Insulating and embedding
Trim the bottom of the model flat and soak shortly in water.
Place the plaster model on the platform.
2. Pressurizing
Heat the foil by setting the code or recommended heating time
according to the instructions. Close the pressure chamber and
open after cooling phase has finished. The moulded duplicating
form should not be trimmed to keep it stable.
3. Finishing
We recommend to pour in plaster and suspend the mould in a
mixing bowl filled with water, in order to reduce any deformation
to a minimum extent due to the weight of the plaster. Nevertheless,
as deformations may still occur, these duplicates can only
be used as study models in orthodontics.
Hints:
COPYPLAST®should only be used for models with stable teeth and small undercuts.
BIOPLAST®moulds are not suitable for pouring resins.

1.Insulating and embedding
Bend and adjust clasps without fixing them. Place flat trimmed model on
the platform and press an ISOFOLAN
®
foil over it. Cut off surplus foil on
model bottom and perforate interdentally with scalpel. Fix clasps from the
buccal side with sticky wax. Embed vestibular model parts in the pellets
up to occlusal areas. Fill up large lingual undercuts with blocking-out putty
(REF 3220).
2.Pressurizing
Heat the material by setting the code or recommended heating time accor
-
ding to the instructions. During the last 20 - 30 sec of the heating time, put
some drops of BIOCRYL
®
resin on the clasp retentions, close pressure cham-
ber and press heated material over the still liquid acrylic. BIOCRYL

3. Finishing
For initial trimming use a cutting bur (REF 3214). The clasps and the labial
bow are released with the finishing bur (REF 3377). The finishing bur is
made of a special soft alloy that will not damage the clasps.

1.Intended set-up
For fabrication of duplication model please refer to page 5 (model duplica-
tion). Proceed with fabrication of intended set-up with duplication model.
Hints for positioning of brackets on the prepared set-up model:
Apply a few drops of water soluble adhesive to the tooth. Position lingual
bracket. Changes in positions can be done with a hot wax knife, inserted
in the bracket slot. Avoid too much adhesive between bracket and tooth.
Adhesive should dry for 10 min
2.Pressurizing BIOPLAST ®

instructions. Close pressure chamber and open after cooling phase has
finished.
3.Soaking
Soak model into water to dissolve the adhesive. Remove the foil with
brackets from the model and reduce BIOPLAST

2 - 3 mm longer than the gingival margin).
4.Segmentation of BIOPLAST ®
Segmentation of the foil is done tooth by tooth, thus allowing the transfer to
the original model
5.Positioning of segments on the original mode
Position the BIOPLAST

single tooth segments on the original model, then
proceed with insulating them with silicone spray or vaseline, so they can be
removed easily from the DURAN

foil later. In case of crowdings leave out
the corresponding tooth
6.Pressurizing DURAN ®

Preparing fixing of the brackets:
Insert incisal perforations with a scalpel, so that surplus adhesive can escape.
Information for dentist/orthodontist:
Apply adhesive to the base (if possible pasty) and insert mask directly on the
patient. Press each bracket with an instrument or finger on the tooth and
after the adhesive has set, remove the foil beginning from the distal side

the wire during the last 20-30 sec. of the heating procedure. After heating
time has finished, close pressure chamber and press the foil over the liquid
acrylic. For coarse finishing, you may use the cutting bur (REF 3214). The
wire elements can be trimmed out with the finishing bur (REF 3377), made
of a soft special alloy that will not damage the wires

1.Insulating, embedding and pressurizing
Apply BIOPLAST
Insulating agent to working models (upper and lower) –
only to those parts which will be covered by the positioner! Trim models
flat and place on model platform, then press a BIOPLAST
of the required
thickness over the model. Cut surplus material at the model bottom using
the finishing set, scissors or scalpel. Cover the palatal and lingual area with
a damp cloth or similar material.
2.
Heat both models for about 3 - 4 min. under the infrared heater using the
heating support (REF 3452, distance between occlusal area and heater
about 10 cm). Place both models into the articulator or fixator and close ap-
pliance slowly. Smooth the lingual area between upper and lower jaw in this
plastic state with moistened fingers.
3. Finishing
After about 2 min. of cooling, the exterior shape of the positioner can be formed
with scissors or scalpel. Unevenness can be levelled by melting BIOPLAST
before taking out the models. Use scissors resp. BIOPERM trimmer for re-
quired corrections of the edges in order to avoid air inclusions
4.
Pierce the bixmaxillary BIOPLAST
mould with drill bit in the interdental
space at the papilla from the labial and buccal side – the lingual and palati-
nal areas of the mould will be finished later. If breathing holes are foreseen,
pierce them now into the mould
5.
Reset the models in the bimaxillary unit made of BIOPLAST
. For an opti-
mum compound, clean the areas which are to be melt into with lukewarm
water and let them dry, avoiding any further contact. Place upper and lower
model unit upright in the pellets with the occlusal surface parallel to the
swivel axis and embed them carefully, i.e covering the model bottom and
releasing the distal areas. Swivel the pressure chamber in working position
to check whether there is enough space for the two models to all sides,
especially to the top. Then press a 2 mm BIOPLAST
sheet over the models.
Air release and pressure decrease in the area of the 2nd molars are normal
in this case – wait 1 minute before opening the pressure chamber.
6.
Cut excess BIOPLAST
material with scissors, scalpel or hot knife. Keep dis-
tance from the final edges, lay open distal model sides. Take models out of
the BIOPLAST
mould and cut away surplus of material along the contours
with scissors – cut interior shape to the final form. Eventually re-drill breath-
ing holes from the outside
7.
Smooth the edges with a BIOPERM trimmer at high speed. Finish and polish
preferably with DIMO
/ DIMO PRO. Polish the edges with a hot knife or with
flame – attention: avoid deformation.
When using BIOPLAST
4.0 / 5.0 mm the positioner can be fabricated in
two layers as well. In this case, after pressure moulding the two models are
heated under the heating support and then carefully melt and modelled in
the articulator
