The primary piezographic mandibular impression: a case report

Abstract

Summary The number of patients with very resorbed mandibular crests (III and IV) continues to increase and pose a challenge during prosthetic rehabilitation with the conventional full removable prosthesis. The piezographic impression is an interesting alternative especially in case of impossibility of implant treatment. It allows making a prosthesis integrating functional muscle play (lingual and labio-jugal) [1]..
