Primary impression:
 It is an impression in which certain Dental materials for impression
landmarks of the jaw are recorded. taking:
 Characteristics:
Plaster of Paris (history )
 Stock tray
Alginate
 Static Silicon
 Overextended
Primary impression, outlineing the special tray.
 The material of the special tray: -shellaque
 -acrylat:-light curing,-self curing,-clear
 Close fitting or spaced tray
 Adjusting the special tray:

Border trimming materials:Green stick compound,impression wax, acrylic

Secondary impression taking techniques: -mucostatic
-mucodinamic

Secondary impression materials:

 ZnO-eugenol paste
 silikon
 poliszulfid
 Oroplastic impression material
Combinated technique:ZnO eugenol and
oroplastic impression material
Working cast,
Occlusal rims:

Boxing with impression wax

 Jaw registration
Preparing upper and lower occlusal rims
 Measures of wax rim:
Highness at the front region:
Lower: 16-18 mm
Upper: 18-22 mm
Highness at the molar region:
 till the middle of the tuberculum alveolare mandibulae
Width:
Molar region: 6 mm
Front region :3-4 mm
Not longer than the second molar
