DENTAL MATRIX CLAMP FOR TOOTH RESTORATION PROCEDURES

摘要

A matrix clamp used in dental procedures to restore teeth to their natural shapes has a pair of gripping portions that are each connected to a cross-over bar. When the gripping portions are depressed by finger pressure, a pair of clamping tines connected to the cross-over bars spread apart from each other to enable the tines to be placed in contact with a sectional matrix band. When the gripping portions are released, a coil spring portion of the matrix clamp urges the tines toward each other so that the sectional matrix band is secured against the tooth and the clamp is retained in its selected position.
