ABSTRACT Background: Completely edentulous patients often express a desire for increased stabilization and retention of their complete removable denture. supra-implanted total removable prosthesis (SITRP) is a simple and reliable alternative that has proven its effectiveness and increased patient satisfaction. Of course, it is the quality of the prosthetic rehabilitation that will guarantee long-term patient satisfaction and which requires a good mastery of impression protocols. However, thanks to scientific data, the general practitioner must be able to have coherent attitudes and adapt his materials and techniques choices to the objectives of this treatment. Objectives: The purpose of this article is to review the various factors that can lead to (SITRP) impression failure, as well as to expose the different materials and techniques for (SITRP) impressions. Finally, this article will describe a simplified impression protocol for a clinical case with two axial attachments to the mandible. Conclusions Impression protocols are not yet well established for every clinical situation due to the multitude of possibilities. However, the practitioner must be able to have coherent attitudes and adapt his materials and techniques choices to the objectives of the treatment. This article detailed by a clinical case the pick-up technique, used in the completely edentulous patient and that are most frequently used technique and providing more precision. Keywords: Impression, Complete overdenture, Implant.
