Resumo

A technique has been described with which a physiologic and anatomic registration of the attached and unattached tissue of the denture-bearing areas can be attained. Clear acrylic resin trays aid in eliminating excessive displacement at the secondary impression phase. Inadequacies of the mucostatic concept include: Failure to register the tissues, which are important for retention and stability Certain metal bases that are part of this procedure can be implemented by only a small number of technicians Increased cost There are two shortcomings of the tissue-loading technique for complete denture impressions. Resulting retention and stability lasts only for a short period of time. Unwanted ridge resorption and tissue changes occur.
