8. Types of trays. Stock trays:(types-uses-requirements).
Trays are instruments used to carry the impression material in the patients mouth until its complete setting.
Components :
flanges
floor
handle

9. Stock trays. Non metallic Metallic Plastic: Made of metal:
Hygienic (one use).
Others are autoclavable.
Difficult to trim.
Made of metal:
St.st. or aluminum.
Strong.
Autoclavable.
Nb: Aluminum trays allow adaptation and cutting with scissors

10. Stock trays: Dentulous trays Edentulous trays Flat floor.
Square in cross section.
Longer flanges.
Straight handle. (why?)
Rounded floor.
Rounded cross section.
Shorter flanges
L shaped handle.

12. Partially edentulous stock trays
Having flat floor in one area.
And rounded floor in other areas.
Usually made for patients with remaining anterior natural teeth and posterior edentulous ridge.

13. Type of impression material to be used:
Stock trays
Type of impression material to be used:
Impression material without adhesive properties uses :
Perforated trays.
Examples of non sticking impression materials:
Alginate
Rubber base impression material.
Impression material with good adhesive properties uses :
NON perforated trays.
Examples of sticking impression materials:
Impression compound.
Zinc oxide / Eugenol impression.

14. 3-Requirements of a stock tray
Reasonable fit.
Cover maximum possible area.
With sufficient space to allow for the impression material thickness.
Accepts modification.
Easy to be cleaned.
Autoclavable.

17. II- Special trays.
Special trays are trays constructed specially for each patient, there for they fit the seat tissues better than the stock trays.
Advantages of special trays:
They fit accurately the dental arch.
Requires less impression material  less dimensional inaccuracy.
More comfortable to the patient.

18. Materials used for special trays:
Shellac base plate.
Chemical cure acrylic resin
Supplied in sheets.
Thermoplastic material.
Less rigidity.
Strengthened by wires.
Easley constructed and adjusted.
Does not accept border tracing.
Supplied in powder and liquid.
Thermo-stable material.
More rigidity.
Sufficient strength.
Easley constructed and adjusted.
Accepts border tracing.

21. Diagnostic (primary )casts.
Ridge shape.
Inter arch relation.
Relief areas.
Vault of the palate.
Depth of vestibules.
Presence of tori and their sizes.

23. Wax spacer
Special trays are constructed directly on the study casts or over a layer of wax called the wax spacer.
Spacer gives equal space for the impression material.
The wax spacer is adapted over all the cast or over specific areas according to the dentist needs.
3-4 holes are cut in it to give stoppers for the tray.
Spacers allow: relief, stress distribution, stability and increases the accuracy of impression.

27. 5- Boxing of the impression.
A procedure made to develop a base for the cast and to protect the borders of the impression.

28. A-Wax boxing method Used for zinc oxide and eugenol impressions
Adding beading wax
Adding boxing wax
Used for zinc oxide and eugenol impressions
Not suitable for alginate or rubber base impressions.

29. 5 mm
15 mm

30. Advantages:
Boxing the impression allow vibration of the dental plaster to avoid bubbles in the cast.
Protection of the borders.
Providing the cast with a base to give sufficient strength for the cast.
Save time and material.
Standardization of the master cast.
