Materials Used
ALGINATE
o Poor dimensional stability o Poor dimensional accuracy o Poor tear strength o Poor stiffness o Interferes with setting of gypsum
AGAR
o Interferes with setting of gypsum o Dimensional instability o Elaborate equipment needed o Low tear resistance
Polysulphide
o Base-polusulfide polymer, Catalyst- lead dioxide o High tear strength o Messy,unpleasant odour o Long setting time o Poor dimensional stability o Hydrophobic
Condensation silicone
o Cheaper o Good tear strength, accuracy & elastic properties o Dimensional instability,due to loss of ethyl alcohol o Poured quickly
Addition silicone
o Shorter setting time o Easy to mix- automatic mixing devices o Adequate tear strength o Extremely high accuracy o Dimensional stability even after 1 week o Least distortion on removal o Hydrophilic o Good compatibility with gypsum
Polyether
o Good dimensional stability & accuracy o Short setting time o Material very rigid o Not available in all consistencies o Most expensive

Tautin(1985)presented a technique to accurately, transfer and reproduce the relationship between implant dentures , in which no preliminary impression or acrylic resin custom tray were needed. He used modeling compound to form a custom tray by adapting it over transfer copings,pressing the compound over the superior aspect of the coping so that its circular outline is seen through the compound.After trimming the outline of the coping showing through the top of the tray an impression plaster is used to record and transfer the coping to the impressions
fabrication of a fixed prosthesis supported by implants.His technique incorporated plugging the incisal end of the transfer coping with beading wax(to prevent impression material from flowing into it)splinting the transfer copings with orthodontic ligature wire and Duralay acrylic resin,use of a plastic perforated impression tray with incisal window to access the transfer coping and making the final impression with putty light body addition silicone.
Rasmussen(1987)presented a technique in which the existing denture is modified using tissue conditioning material is used instead of healing caps after second stage surgery ,eliminating the use of impression copings at the final impression.
Humphries et al (1990) evaluated the accuracy of implant master casts constructed from transfer impressions using three techniques.The techniques used were splinted square polymer copings,unsplinted square polymer copings and unsplinted hydrocolloid copings.Tapered hydrocolloid copings were more accurate than the other two methods.
Carr (1991) compared impression techniques for five implant mandibular model by both indirect and direct transfer coping techniques and found that for the models used ,the direct method produced more accurate working casts.
Vigolo et al(2000)evaluated the accuracy in transferring the position of the hexagonal head of a single implant to the working cast, and concluded that the sandblasting and coating the roughened surface of the impression coping with an impression adhesive will result in more accurate orientation of the implant replicas in the laboratory master casts in single tooth implant restorations.
Conclusion
Success with implant prosthodontics requires a careful attention to each and every step from diagnosis and treatment planning. Several implant systems are available , selection of appropriate one is mandatory. The prosthesis fit can be accurate only if a proper impression is made. Thus usage of correct impression technique and material are important.
