Abstract
An impression system is disclosed for enabling the creation of dentures in one-visit. The impression system may include an upper impression tray, an upper wax bite registration coupled to the upper impression tray, a lower impression tray, a lower wax bite registration coupled to the lower impression tray, and one or more arc-shaped wax plates configured to be coupled to at least one of the upper or lower wax bite registrations. Each of the upper and lower impression trays may include a convex outer surface and a concave inner surface with the associated wax bite registration coupled to the convex outer surface. The one or more arc-shaped wax plates may be configured to adjust distance between the concave inner surfaces of the upper and lower impression trays, generally associated with an occlusal vertical dimension of the patient.
