Capture Quick & Accurate Implant Impressions
Featuring a unique transparent foil technology, MiraTray Implant Advanced allows dental professionals to simplify open-tray implant impressions
Dentists typically have two options when using an open-tray impression technique. They can create a custom tray, which adds an extra patient visit as well as lab turnaround time, or they can modify a stock tray, which is time-consuming and often unreliable. With Hager’s MiraTray Implant Advanced, dentists can steer clear of these less-than-appealing options. MiraTray eliminates the need to modify a stock tray or fabricate a custom tray—allowing dentists to capture implant impressions quickly and accurately. The bottom of each MiraTray is made from a unique foil technology that is transparent for better visualization, and while it is highly durable, it can be punctured when necessary. Compatible with all implant systems, MiraTray can be easily stocked in 3 sizes for use in both the upper and lower arches.
One Doctor’s Job Made Simpler
Like many of his peers, Dr. Varo Boyer, who practices at Elite Dental Implant Center in Simi Valley, CA, previously used a stock tray to capture implant impressions. “Prior to using MiraTray, I would use stock trays and cut out windows in them so I could take open-tray implant impressions,” said Dr. Boyer, who has placed thousands of implants throughout his career. Now, he can take implant impressions quickly and easily without the inconvenience of modifying a stock tray. “MiraTray is unique in the way that it does not require extra work and time to customize the trays. It is a very clean and easy way to take open-tray impressions.”
“Full-arch impressions are difficult, and MiraTray is a lifesaver.”

- 2. Accurate—The patented clear film improves visualization of the treatment area for a faster and more accurate impression.
Simplifying Implant Impressions
In addition to time savings, Dr. Boyer also appreciates how neat impression taking has become since using MiraTray. “It is less messy, which definitely improves patient comfort.” While less mess and waste are positive attributes of any product, they are especially important when it comes to impression-taking. Because of MiraTray’s non-messy application, Dr. Boyer has been able to manage difficult cases with ease. “I had a full-arch case where I had to take an impression and the patient was a gagger,” shared Dr. Boyer. “With MiraTray, we were able to take a quick, non-messy impression and increase the patient’s comfort to a level where they did not gag. Full-arch impressions are difficult, and MiraTray is a lifesaver.”
Less Chair Time & Fewer Patient Visits
MiraTray has also sped up chair time for Dr. Boyer and his dental team, while fewer custom impression trays from the lab cuts down on extra patient appointments—two factors that are especially important during the COVID-19 pandemic and heightened safety concerns. “Due to the fact that we do not have to spend time opening holes in the trays, removing excess material, or trying to find the implant screws, MiraTray also saves us chair time,” concluded Dr. Boyer.
