Efficiency in dental practice often comes from versatile tools that can serve more than one function. The New Design Multi-Purpose Disposable Steel Trays are a innovative product that bridges two essential areas: taking accurate impressions and performing in-office or take-home teeth whitening procedures, offering exceptional value and convenience.
Constructed from a thin, flexible, yet rigid medical-grade stainless steel, these trays are designed for single-use, eliminating cross-contamination concerns. Their primary function is as an impression tray. The pre-formed arch shape and rim provide a solid structure to hold impression material as it sets, ensuring a accurate mold of the dentition for the fabrication of study models, night guards, or provisional restorations.
Their secondary, and highly valuable, function is as a whitening tray. The steel can be easily trimmed and adapted to fit the patient’s arch. For in-office whitening, the tray can hold the bleaching gel against the teeth. For take-home kits, the clinician can use the tray to create a custom-fit vacuum-formed tray for the patient, or in some cases, provide the adapted steel tray itself for short-term use with gel.
This duality makes them an incredibly useful accessory. A practice can reduce its inventory by stocking a single product for two purposes. They are particularly handy for quick whitening procedures or for making inexpensive, yet accurate, study models for treatment planning. It’s a smart, economical, and practical solution for the modern dental practice.
