CONTENT:

This lecture will explain the process of procuring an accurate implant-level impression so that we can successfully deliver an attachment retained overdenture.

We will illustrate the site selection for the various implants, and the types of implants we prefer for an implant overdenture.

It will illustrate how to go about the preparatory procedures for the implant level impression, such as insertion of the impression copings and the correct radiographic interpretation of their complete seating into the implants. We will illustrate, in detail, the step-by-step procedures to procure an accurate implant-level impression using Polyvinyl siloxane or polyether materials that will give us a very stable impression that can be poured at a later date.

We will also show how these impressions are very precise. How the clinician can easily incorporate this into one’s routine removable practice.

We will also illustrate the use of the Massad Lip Ruler, an instrument that will allow us to get a very accurate measurement and communication to the lab technician in determining the correct incisal edge position for our wax rim and then ultimately for the central incisors in the denture teeth settings.

All these items will give us accurate data from our first appointment, the implant-level impression, leading up to our jaw relation records and delivery of the attachment retained overdenture.
