- Designed for use in Class II composite restorations on bicuspids (premolars) and smaller molars, especially when the preparation extends below the gumline
Features:
- Target teeth:
- Bicuspids (premolars) and small molars
- Extension:
- The band includes a subgingival extension, which allows it to be used in cases where a deep decay pocket needs to be restored below the height of the normal tooth contour
- Dimensions:
- The band has a height of 3.8mm, with the extension bringing the total height to 5.4mm
- The band is very thin, with a thickness of 0.0015 inches
- Material and contour:
- Made of stainless steel, these bands are pre-contoured in three dimensions to help dentists create accurate, anatomical contact points and contours
Instructions:
- The B150 band is part of the Composi-Tight sectional matrix system
- It is used in conjunction with a separation ring (like the G-rings from the K102 kit) to provide a firm, contoured wall that contains the composite filling material
- The separator ring applies pressure to create proper interproximal space and tight contacts, while the band's extension ensures a proper seal at the base of the tooth preparation
