    Impression Trays

    In complete denture prosthesis we make a primary impression


    & final or secondary impression. To make an impression we
    should have a tray.
    A tray:
    is a device used to carry, confine & control the impression material from the
    patient's mouth. During impression making the tray facilitate insertion &
    removal of impression material from the patient's mouth.
    Parts of the tray: it consist of :-
    Types of trays: There are 2 main types

    1- Stock tray:
    2- Special tray
    They are made of different materials such as Al, Tin, Brass or Plastic, in
    variety of shapes, size to fit different mouth.
    Types of stock trays:
    1- Stock tray for dentulous patient.
    2- Stock tray for edentulous patient.
    We can distinguish between them by: stock trays for dentulous patient have long
    flanges, wide and flat floor, while the other have short flanges, oval and narrow floor.
    Stock trays can be classified according to impression material
    are of two types:

    1. Perforated
    2. Non perforated
    Factors effect in selection of stock tray:

    1. The type of material:

    2. Size of the arch.


    3. Form of the arch. (round , square , taper ).

    4. The stock tray must covered all the anatomical landmarks

    5. Stock tray should give a sufficient space (4-5)mm


    Special tray ( Individual or custom tray) :
    An individualized impression tray made from a cast recovered from primary
    impression. It is used in making a final impression.
    Advantages of special trays:
    1. Economy in impression material
    2. More accurate impression.
    3. Special tray provides even thickness of impression material.
    This minimize tissue displacement & dimensional changes of
    impression material.
    4. The work with special tray is more easier & quicker
    5. Special tray is more accurately adapted to the oral vestibules,
    this helps in better retention of denture.
    6. Special tray are less bulky than stock tray which is more
    comfortable for the patient.
    Materials used for construction of special tray:

    1- Cold cure acrylic

    2- Shellac base plate.

    3- Impression compound (some times).

    4- Heat cure acrylic (rarely).


    Types of special tray:

    1- Spaced special tray (with stopper or without stopper).

    2- Closed fitted special tray.


    Techniques or methods of construction of special trays:

    1. Finger adapted dough method

    tray will be about 2-3 mm in thickness.


    stoppers we should have 4 stoppers, 2 at ant. & 2 at post.
    2. Sprinkle- on acrylic technique:
    Criteria for Special tray construction :

    1- The impression tray must not impinge upon movable structures.

    2- The borders must be under extended (2mm) .

    3- The posterior limits of the impression tray should be slightly over- extended

    4- The tray should be rigid & of sufficient thickness

    5- The tray must have a handle for manipulation
