title: Flexible casts used in making indirect interim restorations.
abstract: This article describes a procedure for making indirect interim restorations from a cast and dies made of polyvinyl siloxane impression material. The use of these flexible casts and dies facilitates the removal of the polymerized resin from the cast and the rapid set of the polyvinyl materials reduces the time involved in making the indirect interim restorations.
