Impression materials too have gone through a tremendous phase of development. From olden day clay, to wax to the modern day elastomers, they have indeed not only improved the quality of the impression but also directly influenced the technique used to manipulate these materials during impression making.

This book has made an attempt to summarize all the major impression techniques and materials used in modern day Prosthodontic therapy.
