Conventional Implant Impressions for Fixed Dental Prostheses
Implant impressions are important for the fabrication of dental prostheses. The aim of implant impressions is accurate transfer of the intra-oral implant situation to the dental laboratory. It is possible to record the implant situation with conventional analog impression techniques, or using digital technologies.
All implant impression techniques employ a variation of the pick-up or transfer impression technique sometimes used in conventional, tooth-borne prosthodontics.
In the case of implant impressions, a precision-made impression component is used to register the position, alignment, and rotational orientation of the implant.
The impression, whether it follows a conventional (that is, analog) or digital workflow, then records this information in relation to the surrounding hard and soft tissues. This module will deal with conventional impression techniques and all of the parameters involved.
