Crown Impression Tips Part 2

A viewer requested some tips for final impressions. I asked a number of residents and mentors for their own tips. As well, I took a look through the literature, and textbooks (Summit (Operative Dentistry) and Schillingburg (Prosthodontics)) for other helpful tips. This will be in 3 parts.
Here is Part 1: • Crown Impression Tips

Great point. I've often thought about it, but just never did it. Thanks, Ashley

Thanks for the tips! I think the most helpful advice will be to practice with the light body tip before actually doing it. Even with the mojo syringe, i find that i get an air bubble on that distal lingual margin

Here is the first thumb up for a great vid, and I've got nothing to do with dentistry. People should recognize more often the hard work that goes on putting out something like this for viewers.

Great point. I used to do this, but, knowing my luck, I was concerned if I was increasing the probability of trapping air.
Cheers

A mandibular stock tray can be used for the maxilla.

Regarding the Problem you discuss at around 1:50 -> Just use an lower jaw impression Tray for the upper jaw, problem solved ;)

nice but I've always wondered if it's ok to use the light body only on the teeth intended to have the crown or bridge and not on all teeth, i saw many illustrative videos and in most they applied the light body on all teeth in the impression and again on the occlusal surfaces of all teeth
