New from Cbite DDS, the Impress Tray™ is a multipurpose impression tray with an innovative design that features clear and easily removable panels to accommodate implant impressions.
This eliminates unnecessary guesswork and the time needed to drill out holes. This tray also incorporates an ergonomic handle for better support and leverage.
The Impress Tray™ was developed by a Prosthodontist, along with 3 years of R&D and collaborative feedback from specialists.

Q: Is it normal for the panels to break during removal?
A: Yes, the panels are designed to break to facilitate the removal of multiple panels.
Q: Can multiple panels break off at the same time?
A: Yes this is part of the design. Use boxing or soft wax to cover the hole and allow only the impressioncoping to go through while preventinng the impression material from leaking through.
See video for procedure example.
Q: Can you use the Impress Tray™ with Alginate?
A: Yes. The undercut design on the vertical slits and panel holes create maximum grip on the impression material. This makes the use of adhesives optional.
Q: Can the Impress Tray™ be heated to accommodate odd sizes?
A: Yes. It can be heated with a heat gun or hair dryer. Once the plastic is hot enough, it can be bent to accommodate the form desired.
