Sectional Matrix

The Palodent Contoured Sectional Matrix provides the operator with exact control of every surface of the restoration. Features include:

• Its shape provides natural contours and profiles. The contact appears in its natural position, rather than the flat surface and improper contact of conventional matrices.
  
• It is malleable and can be adapted to the residual tooth surfaces.
  
• The embrasure can be controlled without having to disk or polish in difficult areas near the contact.
  
• It can be used with any restorative material, including composites, silver amalgam, wax patterns, and temporaries.
  
• It can be removed laterally with minimal disruption of freshly placed material.
  
• It can be applied and adjusted with sterile instruments to maintain sterility.
  
• It is fast and simple to use because there is no need to insert any part of the matrix in the untreated opposite contact. Additionally, with no matrix-thickness separating the untreated opposite contact, it is easier to separate the treated contact.
  
• A notch at the top of the matrix ensures that the assistant passes the matrix in the cotton pliers properly oriented.
