Impression Technique of a Better Marginal Fit Auricular Prosthesis
Journal Title: Open Access Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 6
Abstract
Impression of a craniofacial implants to make a definitive prosthesis may be difficult at time. Movement of facial muscles and surrounding tissue beds may be interfered with the prosthesis even if it is carefully done. Position of the patient of the patient during impression should be considered for additional technical consideration for extraoral technique for impressioning to obtain the accurate tissue around the implant site. 1.1. Procedure: By having the patient to sit up in an erect position the tissue bed had change in position and the impression can be making. 1.2. Result: the definitive wax-up and tried-in were more accurate on the skin fitness than the supine position in this case. The optimal outcome revealed that the close fit of definitive prosthesis has a closed fit margins with the surrounding tissue bed with the auricular prosthesis. 1.3. Conclusion: There are many type of movable tissue bed move and non-movable for the cranio-facial defect patient, it is essential to determine the surrounding tissue surround the defect area prior to make an impression to eliminate any technical errors for any prosthesis that required to be made. This case is an example of the selection of the position of a patient and the technical impression methodology to obtain the best possible outcome for the patient.
