    This study presents a dental technique to skip preliminary impressions for complete dentures in patients with small mouths. Existing dentures with adequate borders serve as custom impression trays, simplifying the process.

    Area of Science:

    • Dentistry
    • Prosthodontics
    • Dental Materials

    Background:

    • Conventional complete denture fabrication often requires preliminary impressions.
    • Patients with limited oral openings present challenges for impression taking.
    • Existing dentures can potentially be repurposed for impression procedures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce and describe a technique for fabricating complete dentures that bypasses the need for preliminary impressions.
    • To provide a method for managing impression procedures in patients with restricted oral apertures.

    Main Methods:

    • The described technique utilizes existing complete dentures as individualized impression trays.
    • Adequate border extensions of the existing dentures are crucial for this method.

  • This approach is specifically designed for patients with abnormally small oral openings.

    • Main Results:

    • The technique successfully avoids the necessity of making preliminary impressions.
    • It offers a viable alternative for impression procedures in challenging patient populations.
    • Patient-specific impression trays are created from existing dentures.

    Conclusions:

    • This method is effective for complete denture impression in patients with small oral openings.
    • Repurposing existing dentures as impression trays simplifies the fabrication process.
    • The technique enhances patient comfort and reduces procedural steps.
