Abstract

One of the key factors contributing to improved quality of life of edentulous patients is reliable fixation and stabilization of removable dentures which is performed by obtaining functional impressions. However, it is a time and labor consuming method. The proposed technique which involves the use of innovative impression materials and partial automation of the process enables you to model individual spoon edges more quickly and accurately.
