Area of Science:

  • Dental Prosthodontics
  • Removable Prosthodontics

Background:

  • Fabricating tooth-mucosa-supported removable partial dentures requires precise impressions.
  • Traditional impression techniques can be time-consuming and prone to laboratory errors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe an improved single impression procedure for tooth-mucosa-supported removable partial dentures.
  • To achieve maximum tissue coverage and selective pressure application on residual ridges.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing custom trays with border molding.
  • Implementing selective relief and pressure application on residual ridge areas.
  • Performing a single impression procedure.

Main Results:

  • The single impression technique successfully achieved maximum tissue coverage.

  • Selective pressure was effectively applied to primary stress-bearing areas.
  • Treatment time was reduced compared to conventional methods.

    • Conclusions:

    • The described single impression method is efficient for fabricating tooth-mucosa-supported removable partial dentures.
    • This technique minimizes laboratory errors and simplifies the overall process.
    • It offers a viable alternative to the altered cast impression technique.
