Take the time to block out tongue area before pouring mandibular arch. This eliminates a lot of work later!!!

The pink area indicates the addition of alginate to block out the tongue area

Notice the flat the tongue area

You can use alginate, “Play-Doh” like material or wax as block out.

Failing to block out the tongue area of the mandibular impression before pouring will

cause the impression to sink and give you a lot of work later in the trimming process

Impression tore due to impression sinking during the pour

Notice all the extra stone that will need to be removed on the lathe. This will take up a lot of time an effort and jeopardize damaging the model
