Popis: Forty cases of edentulous patients have been studied for the functional activities of a prosthetic device. The patients were selected from the outpatient Department of Prosthodontics of Dental Unit, Rajshahi Medical College, Rajshahi. The aim of this study was to overcome the limitation of the availability of paste impression material as well as storage problem of the paste. No significant difference was observed in male or female cases. Retention and Stability tests were positive in 36(90%) cases, whereas, 4(10%) cases showed lack of retention and stability due to reduced surface area and irregular bony foundation.
