Abstract
A tray made with prescribed and customized depths and sizes of the tab containing reservoir for controlled delivery and amounts of the therapeutic agents, including but not limited to, calcium, antibiotics, fluoride, desensitizer, and bleaching gel to each tooth. The tray includes a mesh in the reservoir that holds the therapeutic agents within the reservoir. The mesh may keep therapeutic agents' strength from the dilution by influx of saliva. The oriented materials improve the efficiency of transportation of the treatment agents. The tray is made based on the customized tab that determines the depth and size of the reservoir. The customized reservoir may be fabricated by spacer tab made of polymer material such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC). There may be several depths of the tabs and may be color-coded from 0.1 to 0.9 mm.
