Clinician's Choice® Quad-Tray® Xtreme™ Dual-Arch Impression Tray Clinician's Choice® Quad-Tray® Xtreme™ Dual-Arch Impression Tray

Designed to prevent impression distortion, Quad-Tray® Xtreme™ is dentistry’s best-selling metal dual-arch, disposable impression tray. Quad-Tray Xtreme is made from rigid aluminum that will not distort when placed intraorally or upon removal, eliminating retakes and excessive occlusal adjustment.

Thanks to many clinically significant features the Quad Tray Xtreme dual-arch impression tray delivers unparalleled accuracy for a wide range of impression procedures.

Other features and benefits of the Quad Tray Xtreme include:

• Ultra-rigid aluminum construction is memory-free and dead soft
• Wide, customizable arch design fits any arch shape or size
• Thin distal bar prevents retro molar pad impingement
• Low sidewalls prevent palatal impingement and axial roll of the tray wall
• Retention bars along the inside of buccal and lingual tray walls help lock impression material to the tray
• Large handle for easy handling

The Quad-Tray Xtreme is part of Clinician’s Choice Quad-Tray family of ultra-rigid aluminum dual-arch impression trays specially designed to prevent the causes of tray distortion.

Q: The trays are too large. What can I do?

A: Quad-Tray Xtreme dual-arch trays are designed to fit any arch width, but are easily narrowed by gently squeezing the sides of the tray inward until the desired width is achieved.

Q: The distal bar is too thick. What can I do?

A: Prior to taking the impression, try-in the Quad-Tray Xtreme and have the patient bite down into the desired intercuspation without soft or hard tissue interference. Repeat this positioning when taking the final impression.

Q: Are there any tips for preventing impression material waste?

A:

1. When using a sideless tray, like the Quad-Tray Xtreme, we recommend using a sufficient amount of tray material to cover both sides of the mesh as well as using additional material to encompass the tray walls on the buccal and lingual surfaces and preparation areas. This recommended loading technique minimizes any chance of impression distortion in order to ensure an ideal fit of the final restoration.

2. Customizing (narrowing) the Quad-Tray Xtreme to the desired arch width will result in the use of the optimal amount of impression material without waste.
