Abstract
Some dogmas that lack support of good evidence still lurk in the clinical procedures of complete dentures. However, such dogmas that waste costs of many kinds are not permitted to exist in our country, which face very high-aged society. The impression technique using custom tray and border molding with impression compounds has been adopted at many universities. However, this technique is difficult to master because extensive training is necessary to accomplish the required skills to effectively use this technique. In current educational environments in which educational time for technological training has been remarkably reduced, it is doubtful whether enough training is now available. Moreover, reports claim that poor correlation results between a dentist's assessment of denture quality and the patient's satisfaction with the treatment. We should elaborately reexamine current production methods and an educational techniques, and then educate by a truly appropriate technique.
