The interproximal composite carver is a dental instrument configured to carve composite material used in dental fillings from the interproximal surfaces of a tooth. The instrument has an elongated handle with a curved blade attached to each of its two ends. The cutting edge of one of the blades is oriented to carve along the left side of a tooth when the blade is inserted into a patient's mouth, and the cutting edge of the other blade is oriented to carve along the right side a tooth when inserted into a patient's mouth. With the cutting edges oriented in opposite directions, the instrument can be used in an ergonomic manner on either side of a given tooth by simply changing which end of the instrument is inserted into the patient's mouth.
