[Original method for total edentulous rehabilitation based on Ludwigs technique. 3. Final impression and functional record of intermaxillary relations].

In the technique described, the search for the peripheral joint and the final impressions are really functional and rely on adapted silicone impression materials. The vertical dimension is investigated physiologically (speech/swallowing). The recording of the centric relation is confirmed graphically with a centric pin. Thus, the patient transcribes his "occlusal signature" and provides both the practitioner and the dental technician with precise data for the mounting of denture teeth.
