A dental tracing apparatus including a first layer having a first surface and a second surface coated with an adhesive material a second layer over the first surface, an edge portion of the second layer being substantially firmly attached to an edge portion of the first surface and a removable third layer over the second surface of the first layer. The dental tracing apparatus is sized and shaped to be attached to a surface of a dental tray after the third layer is removed. The dental tracing apparatus receives tracing caused by an object via the second layer such that the tracing is marked on the dental tracing apparatus. The marked tracing is removable by separating the second layer from the first surface of the first layer and the lifted second layer is repositionable on the first surface of the first layer to receive further tracing.
