Stop Molding Resin. Start 3D Printing Your Trays.
Stock trays are notoriously inaccurate because they result in an uneven thickness of the impression material, leading to costly clinical distortion. China Dental Design offers a premium Custom Impression Tray CAD Design service that allows your US dental lab to instantly 3D print patient-specific trays. Whether for complex open-tray implant cases or precision digital dentures, our digital designs ensure perfect hydraulic pressure for PVS or Polyether materials without the messy manual labor.
Technical CAD Engineering Specifications
We digitally configure the tray parameters based on the specific clinical procedure, ensuring ease of use for the clinician and printing accuracy for your lab:
Digital Design Features
- Uniform Clearance: We set a precise digital offset (e.g., 2mm – 3mm) ensuring consistent space for the impression material.
- Tissue Stops: Strategically placed stops on non-functional cusps to prevent over-seating and ensure tray stability during the impression.
- Digital Block-out: Automatic block-out of severe undercuts to ensure the tray can be inserted and removed easily without locking in the patient’s mouth.
Clinical Applications
- Implant Open Tray: We design precise access holes perfectly aligned over the implant sites for easy access to impression coping screws.
- Denture Trays: Flanges designed exactly 2mm short of the vestibule depth to allow adequate space for accurate border molding (muscle trimming).
- Integrated Handles: Ergonomic, printable handles designed for easy insertion and removal by the clinician.
Seamless Overnight Digital Workflow
- Upload Securely: Send the preliminary intraoral scan or model scan via our HIPAA-compliant portal.
- Prescribe: Specify “Implant Open Tray” or “Denture Tray”, and indicate your preferred clearance offset.
- Expert Design: Our team executes the Custom Impression Tray CAD Design natively in Exocad or 3Shape overnight.
- Download & Print: Download the print-ready STL file the next morning. Print effortlessly in-house using standard dental resins or filament (PLA).
