  • Title: Indirect method of base adaptation against supporting element of tooth root for a partial overdenture prosthesis.
    Author: Oh WS, Park JM.
    Journal: J Prosthet Dent; 2014 Aug; 112(2):373-5. PubMed ID: 24412183.
    Abstract:
    The base of a partial overdenture prosthesis should be fitted intraorally against the supporting element of a tooth root. Chairside relining is a common method; however, an autopolymerizing acrylic resin presents high porosity when polymerized intraorally. This article describes an indirect method where an impression is made with a silicone occlusion registration material to create a replica of the supporting elements of the residual ridge and the tooth root in a high-viscosity polyvinyl siloxane impression material.
