1.  Determine if the die portion of the Triple Tray impression is upper or lower. If
     upper, then select an Upper Pin-Locator (as shown above).

2.  Determine which size Pin-Locator matches the tooth location best. It is suggested
     that you start with the medium (green) size because most impressions will fall into
     the medium category.

Use a black indelible marker to mark the tip of the first molar pointer (the one with the protruding index on each side as shown above). This will help make sure the molar pointer is indeed over the first molar position in the impression. Also, it really helps to take a fine point indelible marker and carefully blacken the top part of the engraved words "UPPER" and "LOWER." You will soon start to remember that all of the uppers have female hinges and the lowers have male hinges.
