3M ESPE

The Directed Flow Impression Tray is an innovative, single-use tray that uses a self-retentive fleece strip, eliminating the need for a tray adhesive. The retentive fleece features striations that act as a barrier to avoid tooth/tray contact and occlusal flat spots for better impression results. The built-in reservoir reduces gagging for improved patient comfort, and with a single-use tray there is no need to disinfect and clean as with metal trays.

Originate disposable impression trays are palate-free, which aids in reducing the gag reflex. These trays are full arch with enough rigidity to prevent the side-to-side movement. Originate can be used with any type of impression material used in fabricating crown and bridge restorations, bleaching trays, or mouth guards. Impression material flows into the unique locking plate on the bottom of the tray, locking it securely into the tray. Each tray is individually packaged and manufactured with Microban Antimicrobial Product Protection to increase sterility.

CLINICIAN'S CHOICE

HEATWAVE customizable impression trays provide a precise fit, rivaling custom trays, but without the inconvenience and cost. You can easily customize HEATWAVE thermoplastic trays by hand by immersing them in a water bath of 158°F for 60 seconds. After adaptation, the tray resumes rigidity at room temperature or by running it under cold water. Because the trays provide a more anatomical fit, impression space is limited, which means you'll use less impression material. This precise fit also creates optimal dynamic pressure around the arch during insertion.

The QUAD-TRAY XL is an extra-long version of the QUAD-TRAY XTREME that incorporates the benefits of the original QUAD-TRAY, including an inflexible aluminum construction, a wide, customizable arch, and a thin distal bar, in a full quadrant design. With the QUAD-TRAY XL, you'll experience distortion-free dual-arch impressions in your multiple preparation and small bridge cases. And since the QUAD-TRAY XL provides greater occlusal detail for your lab, you'll ensure ideal occlusion in your final restorations.
