| Popis: | Flabby ridges/displaceable tissues are a common finding in edentulous patients. Careful management is mandatory, failing which flabby ridges adversely affect the retention, stability and support of complete dentures. This article described a series of three clinical cases, which incorporated varied impression techniques and materials for recording this condition. Window technique with light body polyvinyl siloxane impression for maxillary ridge and double spacer with additional relief holes and light body polyvinylsiloxane impression for mandibular ridge were used for the first case, window technique with impression plaster for maxillary ridge was employed in the second case, and double spacer with additional relief holes and zinc oxide eugenol impression were used in the third case. From the conventional to the latest techniques utilised, the decision to consider which material is appropriate for a particular situation still remains in question. Moreover, the advent of newer dental materials also adds to this confusion. The proper diagnosis and planning is required for selecting the material and technique according to the displaceability of the tissues. |
