Every once in a while a product comes out that makes<br />
me really angry that I did not think of it myself, and<br />
the COE Adjust-A-Tray is one of those products. The<br />
genius of the Adjust-A-Tray is its ability to be used in<br />
four different widths: small, medium, large and extralarge.<br />
The most common scenario for me is when I try<br />
a medium tray into someone’s mouth and discover it<br />
is too small. At this point, you simply remove the tray,<br />
unsnap it from the medium setting and snap it into<br />
the large size. Also, due to perforations at the rear<br />
portion of the tray, you can adjust the tray to three different<br />
lengths. There have been plenty of times when<br />
the width of a tray is acceptable but the tray is too<br />
long, and the Adjust-A-Tray easily solves that problem.<br />
There are also two different sulcus heights so that<br />
you can use the tray for partially edentulous arches<br />
as well. I still use custom trays for all large crown and<br />
bridge cases, but Adjust-A-Trays are great for all study<br />
models, splints, and opposing models.<br />
