The results were as follows.1. No significant reduction was observed on the dimensional change of all kinds of impression materials.2. No significant effect was observed on the surface roughness of all kinds of impression materials.The results of this study indicated that HygojetTM System had no adverse effect on the dimensional change and the surface roughness of the impression materials of all types tested.
