Abstract
This study introduces a new impression procedure that permits mounting the maxillary stone cast in an articulator for any patient treatment and is applicable to any dental arch with any impression material. A t ransfer tray was designed that makes it possible to transfer the patie nt's maxillary impression to the articulator in a one-stage procedure without the need for making record bases and occlusion rims or the nee d to use a face-bow bite fork.
