Evaluation of custom tray border extensions before final peripheral molding using two different materials
Journal Title: International Dental Journal of Student Research - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 1
Abstract
Final Impression is a critical component of successful denture therapy. Providing retention for denture prosthesis is gained with many factors, one of them is atmospheric pressure which requires proper sealing of the denture border 1. Border molding is established to determine the extensions of the denture, duplicate the size and contour of the vestibule, and to ensure a peripheral seal in the completed denture. Ensuring accurate extensions of the custom tray border to the depth of the vestibular sulcus with clearance of 2-3 mm is important before final peripheral molding.1,2 Logan described a technique using disclosing wax to evaluate a patient’s existing denture and in evaluation of the final border recording for any overextension before final impression making.3 Namratha evaluated the extensions of the custom tray border using a mixture of wheat flour, water, and some drops of oil.4 Presence of such mixture components in a dental clinic is unusual and not common. This article describes a proposed technique to verify the
