The movable fibrous ridge caused by extreme maxillary bone resorption compromises the stability of complete dentures, so it must be registered passively. A new, simple and quick mucostatic impression technique along with the occlusal scheme and dental planning system optimizes prosthetic retention. Results are discussed and compared with various impression techniques.
El reborde fibroso móvil mandibular-producto de reabsorción alveolar extrema, trauma oclusal o inestabilidad protésica-se deforma bajo presión, alterando la retención, soporte y estabilidad protésica. La impresión debe registrarlo en forma pasiva, evitando comprimirlo y desplazarlo, transfiriendo la presión hidráulica del material de impresión a la zona de soporte útil del reborde. Se presenta una alternativa simplificada de impresión para reborde móvil mandibular. Se discuten sus ventajas y se contrasta con la literatura relacionada.
