The dental alginate impression material comprising a main paste containing an alginate, water and a filler as major components and a setting paste containing calcium sulfate and a liquid component as major components, the both pastes being to be mixed and set, wherein the main paste further contains 0.01 to 15% by weight of one or two or more polysaccharides selected from the group consisting of carrageenan, pullulane, curdlan, xanthane gum, gellan gum, pectin, konjak glucomannan, xyloglucan, guar gum, gum arabic, and locust bean gum, and the setting paste further contains 0.5 to 50% by weight of polybutene, is provided to thereby make the composition superior in preservability, and free from change of viscosity of the main paste with time, from liquid separation and deterioration of the setting paste, and from a delay in setting time due to the preservation.
