Trays & size variants

Dimensions and native-scale fit

Upper shapes retain the supplied S/M/L dimensions. Lower shapes are Boolean modifications of the corresponding upper STL, with a full-height, posteriorly open tongue space. The neck is blended to the handle interface. Scan scale is never changed to force a fit.

There is no single universal S/M/L dental-tray size. The lower body dimensions below use one traceable manufacturer reference: COLTENE President, catalogue page 2 (June 2013). Width is the posterior outer width; body length excludes the neck and handle; height is the overall tray height, not wall thickness. These are reference dimensions, not a claim about the most frequently purchased sizes across brands.

Lower size Width Body length Height
Small 61.7 mm 50.5 mm 18.3 mm
Medium 69.5 mm 58.5 mm 19.3 mm
Large 79.9 mm 62.2 mm 20.0 mm

Manufacturer dimension drawing

The GC COE manufacturer catalogue lists several numbered lower-tray families with different size labels and dimensions. Premium Plus also distinguishes extra-small and extra-large lower trays. These references support using an explicit product family as the dimensional basis, rather than averaging incompatible products. No market-share dataset establishes a universal “most common” dimension.

Native-scale fit comparison

Large is selected for both scans. Coverage is calculated in that best-fitting size. S/M optical derivatives do not inherit the large-tray percentages.

Jaw Size Sampled feasible Sampled minimum clearance Selected
Upper S Yes 1.11 mm
Upper M Yes 1.61 mm
Upper L Yes 1.71 mm Yes
Lower S No 0.47 mm
Lower M No 0.64 mm
Lower L Yes 1.51 mm Yes

These are bounded pose-search and sample-clearance results for the two provided scans. The selected L poses also received the full mesh-edge intersection audit. They do not establish population-wide fit.

The lower reference length describes the envelope before the tongue-space subtraction. The remaining horseshoe arms end slightly earlier. Actual full mesh extents below include the retained neck; they should not be compared directly with the catalogue body length.

Jaw Size Full width Full length including neck Height
Upper S 78.79 mm 86.58 mm 16.70 mm
Upper M 82.51 mm 91.41 mm 16.70 mm
Upper L 86.02 mm 94.70 mm 16.70 mm
Lower S 61.70 mm 66.88 mm 18.30 mm
Lower M 69.50 mm 74.76 mm 19.30 mm
Lower L 79.90 mm 78.50 mm 20.00 mm
