Description
Border-Lock®
dentulous impression trays and tray adhesive
Whilst
using the dentulous Border-Lock® trays it is strongly recommended to use a tray adhesive to ensure optimal
retention of the impression material. Each impression material is being
influenced by thermal and polymerisation shrinkage. The use of tray
adhesive ensures that the shrinkage of the impression material is directed
towards the border of the tray and not towards the preparation. The use of
adhesive is recommended for the disposable, autoclavable and implant
Border-lock® dentulous impression trays and as well for custom trays.
Border-Lock®
edentulous impression trays and tray adhesive
As
there are many additional retention grooves in the Border-Lock®
edentulous trays, the use of a tray adhesive is not required.

General
recommendation with tray adhesives:
Use
an adhesive that has the same material consistency as the impression
material. Otherwise no bonding will occur between impression tray and
impression material. Always brush just a thin layer of adhesive on the
tray and respect the drying time instructions of the manufacturer.
