Principles
Based on greens theory Given by PAGE based on Proposed by BOUCHER.
principle is to make an pascals law that the places maximum stress
impression that would pressure on a confined on stress bearing area
press the tissues in liquid will be transmitted and no/minimal stress on
same manner as chewing trough out the liquid in all the non stress bearing
forces. Records tissues direction. area
in function and Tissue recorded in resting
displaced form. or anatomic form.
Advantage
Excellent retention . Preservation of residual Preservation of residual
peripheral seal is good ridge ridge
uniform load
distribution
Disadvanta
Excessive tissue Prevents wider distribution Creates a negative
compression of stress pressure in relief areas
Materials
Impression compound Impression plaster, ZOE Impression plaster, ZOE
paste paste
used
Concepts to be followed for a
Successful impression
Base plate wax approx 1mm thick is placed on the cast within the
actual border to provide space for the final impression material
Posterior palatal seal area on the cast is not covered by wax spacer
1 to achieve posterior border seal
2 guiding stop to held the tray properly
Materials used are
conventional auto polymerizing acrylic resins
thermoplastic resin sheet used in vacuum or pressure
adapting devices
thermoplastic shellac base plate materials.
Diagnostic casts
Wax spacer with tissue
stops
Custom trays made
Additional relief
given in incisive
papilla,ruguae and
mid palatal
raphae region
Requirement of custom tray
Borders should be
beveled.
Overextensions are trimmed
Excess compound on
tissue side trimmed.
Compound placed on
posterior border
