Cord Retraction and Impression

Learn Dr Lincoln Harris's procedure for taking perfect impressions.

The principles of getting a good impression are the same, regardless of whether you are taking a silicone or a digital impression. Dr Lincoln Harris demonstrates packing the retraction cord and explain the benefits of taking impressions slowly to avoid having to redo them. In this case, because it is a straight-forward case, he uses a triple tray to take the impression.
