Open tray vs. closed tray
- For most implant cases involving natural teeth, closed tray impression posts are recommended.
- In multi-unit cases with divergent implants, open tray would be recommended.
- For totally edentulous cases, open tray will be mandatory in order to capture the entire soft tissue environment.
