    This document summarizes the key steps in fabricating a special tray, including: 1) Preparing the primary cast and blocking out undercuts; 2) Adapting various types of relief wax over relief areas; 3) Adapting different spacer designs like Boucher, Morrow, or Sharry; 4) Adding tissue stops; 5) Applying a separating medium; 6) Acrylizing the tray to a thickness of 2-3mm; and 7) Fabricating handles that are parallel to the long axis of teeth and don't interfere with lip movement. The special tray is then ready for use in making border molded impressions.

    The key takeaways are about the contents, requirements, materials, types, fabrication steps and conclusion of special trays.

    The requirements of a special tray are that it should be rigid, retain shape, have simple fabrication and be easy to trim.

    Materials that can be used to fabricate a special tray include auto polymerizing acrylic resin, shellac, vacuum or pressure-formed thermoplastic resin sheets and tray compound.

    Special Tray
    A special tray is defined as, A custom made
    device prepared for a particular patient which is
    used to carry, confine and control an impression
    material while making an impression.

    Requirements of special tray:


    A special tray should be
    1. Rigid
    2. Retain shape
    3. Simple fabrication
    4. Easy to trim

    Materials used to fabricate special tray:


    1. Auto polymerizing acrylic resin.
    2. Shellac
    3. Vacuum or pressure-formed thermoplastic
    resin sheets.
    4. Tray compound

    Overview

    FABRICATION
    A. Preparation of the primary cast :
    1. Undercuts should be find out with the
    help of surveyor and should be blocked out .

    RELIEF - TYPES

    B. Adapting the relief wax:


    Relief wax should be adapted over the
    relief areas marked on the cast.

    SPACER

    C. Adapting the spacer:

    NEILL- O.9 mm of casting wax all


    over except pps area

    BOUCHERS DESIGN
    1 mm base plate wax
    all over except over
    pps area.

    MORROW,
    RUDD,
    RHOADS
    full wax spacer
    2mm short of
    tray.
    3 tissue stops
    -4x4mm
    equidistant from
    each other.

    SHARRYS SPACER
    DESIGN
    base plate wax covering
    the entire tray,
    4 tissue stops-2 mm in
    width .
    In molar and cuspid
    region . 1 vent hole in
    incisive papilla region.

    Function:
    a. The spacer allows the tray to be properly
    positioned in the mouth during border molding procedure.
    b. To allow the impression to have an even
    thickness of impression material.

    Spacer continued

    Thickness of the spacer for different impression


    material:

    0.5 mm
    3 mm
    0.5-1.5 mm

    Zn oxide eugenol paste


    Alginate
    Elastomeric

    1.5 mm

    Plaster

    or
    Zn oxide eugenol paste
    Alginate
    Polysulphide, Silicones
    Plaster

    0.5 mm
    2 mm
    1.3 mm, 3 mm
    2.5 mm
    Ref: Finn

    D. The use of stops:


    The spacer should be cut out in 2-4 places so that
    the special tray touches the ridge in these areas .
    Location: Usually 4 stoppers are placed,
    Size and shape : 2 by 4 mm rectangle

    E. Application of separating medium

    Autopolymerizing resin impression trays


    1.Sprinkle on
    2.Finger adapted dough method

    F. Acrylization:
    Thickness 2-3 mm

    G. Fabrication of handle:
    Criteria of handle :
    1. The handle should be parallel to
    the long axis of the teeth that
    are to be replaced.

    2. The handle should not arise


    horizontally from the tray
    because it may interfere with lip
    movements.

    3. It should be 3-4 mm thick ,


    8 mm long , and 8 mm high.

    Handle criteria continued


    4. The vertical distance from
    the sulcus to the handle is 2 cm
    5. The handle upstand must be made
    long enough for the handle to exit
    through the oral commissure.

    6. For mandibular tray two posterior


    handle should be given as finger rests.

    The next phase is preparing the tray for border


    molding procedure:

    Shellac

    For immediate dentures


    Full arch

    finger adapted
    vacuum method

    Custom posterior trays


    Two piece trays
