Periodontal Tray Making Instructions for Dentists


Tray Fabrication

  • Use .080 EVA or thicker/stiffer tray material
  • On model draw a line about 2 mm from the gingival margins.
  • Use a #1 burr to create a shallow trench on the model.
  • When vacuformed this creates a seal/dam on the tray. This promotes subgingival hydraulic pressure with the gel.
  • Trim trays 4-5 mm beyond the gingival margin, onto the soft tissue.
