Key Takeaways:

  • Restorative dentistry relies on practical day-to-day product choices that support visibility, access, moisture control, matrix placement, and preparation.
  • Inefficient or inadequate products can add pressure to already busy dental workflows, and matrix placement is a small but critical step that can influence the overall appointment.
  • Poorly fitting or awkward matrix bands can affect access, visibility, contour control, contact point creation and workflow efficiency.
  • SafeMatrix single-use matrix bands are preassembled, individually packaged, and ready to use, with no reprocessing required. They support use across MO, OD and MOD cavities, cusp build-ups, and neighbouring-tooth protection during preparation, and feature an ergonomic design to optimise handling, control, access, and visibility.
  • Medicom’s SafeSeal Quattro, SafeDrape and Dry-Back can support the wider restorative and infection prevention workflow alongside SafeMatrix.

Beyond simplifying workflow, SafeMatrix bands support important clinical details during restorative treatment, including tooth adaptation, interproximal contact, contour control, access, and visibility.

  • Streamlined Workflow: Simplify restorative set-up with the SafeMatrix preassembled, single-use matrix bands which are individually packaged and ready to use, with no reprocessing required, saving you time and effort.
  • 
    
  • Anatomical Tooth Adaptation: Support precise matrix placement with the SafeMatrix tensioning mechanism and conical adaptation to the anatomy of the tooth, helping the band adapt closely around the tooth, and provide tight interproximal contact.
  • 
    
  • Effective Restorative Support: Create a smooth external surface for packing restorative material, to effectively support contour control, contact point formation, and consistent everyday restorative workflows.
  • 
    
  • Versatile Restorative Use: Use across a wide range of restorative cases, including MO, OD, and MOD cavities, cusp build-ups, and neighbouring-tooth protection during preparation. Plus, SafeMatrix can be used with all restorative materials, as well as wedges and rubber dams.
  • 
    
  • Better User Comfort And Control: Support efficient placement and adjustment thanks to the slim, textured handle and ergonomic thumbscrew grooves, plus the push-button diverter designed to create band angulation, for confident day-to-day use.
