  • Title: The 2-minute impression technique.
    Author: Werrin SR.
    Journal: Quintessence Int; 1996 Mar; 27(3):179-81. PubMed ID: 9063231.
    Abstract:
    Finding an impression technique that provides a quick and accurate dental impression can be an elusive goal. The combination of a rigid, fast-setting poly(vinyl siloxane) bite registration paste and a disposable closed-mouth impression tray fulfills this goal. The comfort of the patient is enhanced because a minimal amount of the impression material, which is tasteless, is necessary. The technique enables the dentist to record habitual centric occlusion, the prepared tooth or teeth, and the opposing arch accurately and simultaneously.
