The Halo Sectional Matrix System Original Bands with Instruments Kit is designed to streamline the creation of anatomically contoured composite restorations. This comprehensive kit includes essential components that work synergistically to ensure tight interproximal contacts and natural tooth contours, enhancing both clinical efficiency and patient satisfaction.
- 2 Universal Matrix Rings: Crafted from durable glass-filled nylon with super-elastic nitinol, these rings provide consistent separation force and anatomical adaptability, effectively reducing flash and minimizing the need for extensive finishing.
- 25 Original Matrix Bands (3.5 mm): Ultra-thin (0.038 mm) stainless steel bands with a non-stick Teflon™ coating, facilitating easy placement and removal.
- 25 Original Matrix Bands (4.5 mm): Designed for adaptability in moderate interproximal spaces, these bands maintain their form during placement.
- 25 Original Matrix Bands (5.5 mm): Ideal for standard Class II restorations, these bands provide a balance between flexibility and rigidity.
- 25 Original Matrix Bands (6.5 mm): Suited for larger interproximal spaces, these bands ensure a snug fit against the tooth structure.
- 25 Original Matrix Bands (7.5 mm): Optimal for extensive restorations, these bands offer enhanced stability during placement.
- 25 Small Wedges (Yellow): Anatomically shaped wedges that provide active separation, ensuring proper adaptation of the matrix band at the gingival margin.
- 25 Medium Wedges (Blue): Designed to fit a variety of tooth anatomies, these wedges assist in achieving optimal separation and adaptation.
- 25 Large Wedges (Green): Ideal for larger teeth or spaces requiring significant separation, these wedges enhance the effectiveness of the matrix system.
- 1 Tweezers: Facilitates precise placement and manipulation of matrix bands during procedures.
- 1 Forceps: Designed for secure handling and placement of matrix rings, ensuring accurate adaptation and stability.
- 1 Halo Carousel: A convenient dispenser that organizes and stores all components securely, minimizing the risk of spills and facilitating quick access during procedures.
- Material: High-quality stainless steel bands with non-stick Teflon™ coating; nitinol rings; anatomically contoured wedges; stainless steel tweezers and forceps.
- Band Thickness: 0.038 mm, providing a thin yet durable matrix for precise restorations.
- Ring Design: Anatomically contoured with rigid glass-filled nylon tines and a super-elastic nitinol ring, ensuring consistent force and longevity over multiple uses.
- Wedge Design: Active wedging with a collapsible center for anatomical adaptation; stackable for enhanced separation.
- Instrument Design: Ergonomically designed tweezers and forceps for precise handling and placement of matrix components.
- Sterilization: All components are autoclavable; the nitinol rings can withstand over 1,000 sterilization cycles without significant loss of force.
Clinically, the Halo Sectional Matrix System is utilized to achieve natural contours and tight interproximal contacts in composite restorations. The original matrix bands provide adaptability and better burnishing, while the anatomically contoured wedges offer enhanced separation, facilitating proper adaptation of the matrix band at the gingival margin. The nitinol rings deliver consistent separation force, contributing to the overall success of Class II restorations. The included tweezers and forceps ensure precise placement and stability of matrix components, streamlining the restorative process. The carousel dispenser keeps all components organized and easily accessible, enhancing procedural efficiency.
