• Refer to packaging for exact contents and sizes.

Working & Setting Times

• Working: Allows for manipulation and adjustment during the restoration process.
• Setting: Not applicable.

Indications

• Class II dental restorations.
• Situations requiring precise contouring of restorative materials.
• Restorative procedures where adaptation to tooth structure is critical.
• Cases where minimizing overhangs is a priority.

Instructions for Use

1. Select the appropriate size of perforated metal matrix.
2. Position the matrix around the tooth to be restored.
3. Ensure proper adaptation to the tooth structure.
4. Apply restorative material into the cavity while maintaining matrix position.
5. Remove the matrix after the material has set to evaluate the restoration.

Summary
