Abstract

An esthetic revolution is occurring in dental profession. The esthetic treatment enhances appearance, improve smiles, restore function and raise self esteem. This is now well known that both teeth and gums make good smile and good facial esthetic. Sometimes while doing treatment in esthetic zone, impression procedure can cause strangulation of interdental papilla, causing loss of papillae. This article therefore describes a new impression technique that involves the matrix impression system and “every other tooth” technique.
