title: Tissue management with dental impression materials.
abstract: The coordination of perceptive tissue management, diligent tooth preparation and prudent selection of the impression material for specific clinical conditions ensures the success of cast and ceramic restorations. The introduction of a knitted cord (Ultrapak with Astringedent) has alleviated the arduous aspects of tissue displacement and the new impression materials have displayed exceptional accuracy but healthy tissue is fundamental.
