| Abstract: | Complete impression with rings achieves the same definition than complete impressions alone and gives a final quality similar to unitary guided impressions. The required steps are the following: 1st clinical: adjustment of the unitary rings, laboratory: elaboration of metallic resin boxing and individual tray, 2nd clinical: complete impression with rings. This method is of a particular interest because of its facility and its possible adaptations to various impression pastes or clinical situations. No gingival conditioning is required to the impression, and increased indications of the method can thus be seen when esthetics or periodontal conditions are a priority. |
