This study presents a methodology for obtaining a precise impression of the crown margin of prepared teeth by utilizing a two-step impression technique. The method begins with the fabrication of a custom tray made from heat-cured acrylic resin, followed by the acquisition of an initial impression using putty elastomeric material. Subsequently, the impression is relieved around the prepared teeth, and vent holes are strategically placed through both the impression and the tray. Finally, a light-body consistency impression material is applied. This streamlined technique enhances efficiency and minimizes the errors commonly encountered with traditional two-step impression methods.
