With the introduction of implants the treatment modalities in dentistry have evolved into leaps and bounds. The implant treatments have overcome the various limitations of the conventional prosthetic treatment procedure. A good impression forms the basis for a successful prosthetic treatment. The oral environment presents a challenging task for the dentist, which he has to replicate for the fabrication of various prosthesis. Furthermore, the skill and appropriate selection of the material and technique plays a significant role. A variety of impression techniques for the fabrication of implant supported prosthesis have evolved in the past decade. Selection of a specific technique depends on the evaluation of a particular patient and the clinical situation present.
