Border-Lock Edentulous trays deliver impression accuracy and stability that rivals custom trays, at a fraction of the cost.
Border-Lock Edentulous Impression Tray System
Description
- Anatomically correct design and fit reduces impression space, delivering superior dynamic pressure around the arch during insertion while reducing the amount of impression material you will need to use by up to 40%
- Enables suction-type retention for a lower denture
- Maintains excellent peripheral contours, conforms to the palate, and accurately captures the hamular notches
- Made from rigid Plexiglas to deliver enhanced stability
- Green moldable trays can be shaped by hand to a patient’s particular arch size and contour, after immersion in 70°C water
- Available in 5 upper and 5 lower sizes
Clinical Technique
The Border-Lock Edentulous Tray System includes a caliper to measure both the width and unique shape of the patient’s arch. For the upper, measure the greatest distance between the buccal faces to the alveolar ridge with the caliper (for the lower, measure the distance between the retro molar pads with the caliper.
Place the caliper on the measurement guide to easily identify the ideal Border-Lock tray for that patient.
Try-in tray to ensure proper fit.
Load the Border-Lock tray with Affinity Monophase.
Insert the tray intraorally and border mold. Excess impression material will not escape toward the throat. Monophase’s intraoral set time is less than 3:00 minutes. Border-Lock Edentulous trays limit the impression space, reducing impression material by up to 40%, and providing better accuracy.
