1. Imprints, their classification, method of receipt. Classification of materials of imprint. Clinical, physical and chemical descriptions of materials for imprint

2. Impression is a negative (reverse) reflection of any organ of the dentomaxillar system: teeth, alveolar sprout or part, palate, nose, ear and others like that. Impression is a negative (reverse) reflection of hard and soft tissues, placed in the area of dental prosthesis and it’s borders which Is being taken by means of the special impression materials

3. Types of impressions: Previous Final

4. Final impressions: Anatomical Functional

5. Types of impressions Single layer Double layer Combined

6. Types of impressions Anatomical ( orientation )– take with standard or individual tray in the state of calmness of tissues of prosthetic bed and tissues, which are placed on a border with them. Functional - take with individual tray by means of the special functional tests, in the case of making of removable constructions of dentures : compression - in the case of pressing of buffer areas of prosthetic bed, by masticatory pressure or by the hand of doctor; decompression - in the case of minimum pressure on the tissues of prosthetic bed

7. Double layer – an exact reflection of gingival edge is taken by means of impression materials of the same group (previous layer + correction layer) Combined – is taken by means of impression materials of different groups (previous layer + correction layer) Occlusal – for taking impression in position of central occlusion

8. Impression trays Standard : made factory - On maxillae different sizes - On mandible different sizes Individual : made in dental laboratory By material: -plastic -metallic -waxen Presence of retentin points -perforated -unperforated
