Elastomeric impression materials are present in our daily lives.
Mainly in impressions for fixed and implant-supported prostheses, but also in removable and complete dentures.

These include polysulfide (mercaptan), condensation and addition silicones, and polyether.

All offer excellent copying power but with some unique characteristics.
Which do you prefer to use? Why?

And have you used dental scanning or CAD systems? Are they more accessible for purchase now?

See some of these topics in this video I prepared for you...
In the YouTube version, I've included a list with the names of the main direct CAD systems.

Happy learning!
