Double-Wedge 64 Pack

SKU: 402062

Includes:
64 x Double-Wedges

The Double-Wedge is the world's first "pull" wedge. The Double-Wedge's unique "pull" design differs significantly from all other wedges that are "pushed" into the interproximal space.

It is particularly useful for anterior restorations and the canines fossa of the upper 1st premolar. The Double-Wedge must be "flossed" into an embrasure BEFORE cavity preparation so that it can depress the gingival tissues and prevents unintentional laceration of the gingival col.

Ease it out slightly while the matrix is placed in position and then pulled tight again. Do not over-pull as this wedge is designed to provide maximum gingival seal rather than wedging the teeth apart. However, it does cause tooth separation in normal use.

  • Shaped to minimize trauma
  • Works as haemostat on interproximal tissue
  • Separates teeth
  • Transparent for light curing
  • Stretchy and strong
  • Retains and protects rubber dam

The Double-Wedge has uses as a gingival and rubber dam protector in Class II's, as a haemostat agent, as a wedge for retainerless matrix bands, as a tooth separator and as a tool for maintaining a dry field. It can also be used to hold the Mylar strip when restoring anterior Class III's, preventing overhanging margins and the need for polishing strips.
