Abstract

A method for fabrication of record bases which is used in implant dentistry has been described. This method is cost effective because it does not need extra equipment for making the maxillomandibular relations. This technique involves the application of plastic sprues that fit on the top of implants to hold the record bases and allows for easy recording of maxillomandibular relations with an implant-supported record base.
