Comparison of two impression techniques for auricular prosthesis: Pilot study. J Rehabil Res Dev. 2013;50(8):1079–88. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2012.08.0145 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2012.08.0145JSP Aim – Compare accuracy of new impression technique (triple-layer impression technique [TLIT]) with conventional impression technique (CIT) to fabricate auricular prostheses. Relevance – Impression techniques play vital role in accurate reproduction of affected and unaffected ears, orientation of ear during wax try-in, and fabrication of ear prostheses.

Comparison of two impression techniques for auricular prosthesis: Pilot study. J Rehabil Res Dev. 2013;50(8):1079–88. http://dx.doi.org/10.1682/JRRD.2012.08.0145 Slideshow Project DOI:10.1682/JRRD.2012.08.0145JSP Method 10 markings made on subjects’ ears. – For 5 measurements: super aurale–sub aurale, pre aurale–post aurale, A–A1, B–B1, and C–C1) Custom-made trays recorded impressions in CIT and TLIT using alginate. – Models were cast with type IV gypsum product. Markings were transferred on cast and measures were rechecked. Evaluated: – Distribution analysis of measurement differences between CIT and TLIT. – Subject’s actual values.

TLIT found to produce accurate models compared with CIT.
