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