Abstract

Throughout the long history of complete denture treatment, various impression techniques have been introduced. However, there is still insufficient evidence to determine whether different impression techniques result in varying clinical outcomes, and it is generally believed that the choice of technique is largely influenced by the practitioner’s preference or affiliation. Nonetheless, it is often felt that it is difficult to achieve success in a various cases using only a single impression technique, it is important to select the appropriate technique based on the specific case. In this paper, I aim to organize and explain the various impression techniques that have been introduced so far, and to consider the appropriate clinical indications for each.
