Take 1® makes a significant difference in impression results because Kerr makes it different from any other polyvinyl available today. It builds on the heritage of Extrude, the first family of impression materials, employing advances made in vinyl material, filler technology and hydrophilic monomers. Take 1 is actually a blend of 5 vinyls and a bimodal filler system. In addition to Take 1’s surfactant, Kerr also included a patented hydrophilic additive. This unique, proprietary formulation results in a material that works consistently and easily in virtually any oral environment. Available in 4 viscosities and 3 set times, Take 1 offers clinicians the optimal combination of characteristics for any impression in any situation. Furthermore Take 1 is available in Volume™ delivery for use in automatic mixing machines, like the Kerr Volume Mixer, which offer convenience and speed to any practice with demanding impression-taking needs.
