  Objectives: The aim of this study is to compare the setting time, which is shortened by using various different slurry water concentrations with the changes of setting expansions of plaster and stones. Materials and Methods: In this study, two improved dental stones were used to fabricate master casts and dies. The tested fabrications were BegoStone, Moldano and plaster of paris. Three specimens per stone were fabricated to be 100 mm in length and triangular in cross-section (33×50×33 mm). Mixing was performed with distilled water, tap water and 2% and 16% slurry water. The mixtures were poured into an electronic expansion-measuring device, and setting expansion values were continuously measured and recorded for 24 hours. Results: The mixtures were poured into an electr.. View More»
