“…The movement of denture base can be minimized by recording the tissue in functional form thereby reducing the undue tissue response. 1 Corrected cast impressions are suggested by some authors in all removable partial dentures in partial mandibulectomy cases 2,3 that include use of selective impression technique, fluid wax impression technique and materials such as modeling plastic, metallic oxide paste, fluid wax. A secondary impression made in custom tray attached to the framework only makes the definitive border control and tissue placement a bit easier.…”

The altered cast impression technique is preferred to derive maximum support from the residual ridge in the distal extension partial denture hemimandibulectomy cases. The traditional method is designed primarily for making a secondary impression of the ridge in the functional form to correct a master cast. These functional impression techniques are time-consuming and involve multiple steps. This article describes a new clinical and laboratory technique in impression making. Emphasis is placed on recording the anatomical form of teeth and functional form of the residual ridge in an individual tray using two different impression materials eliminating secondary impression.
