Single-sided opener; 0.10mm; fine-coarse diamond grit Serrated top and bottom; breaks tight contacts for IPR Flexible; curves along tooth contour; no sharp corners For Invisalign, ClearCorrect, and clear aligner IPR Steam autoclavable; reusable up to 3-5 uses per strip Quantity: 8 per Pack ContactEZ ContacEZ IPR Plus Interproximal Strips, Single-Sided, Fine-Coarse, Clear are used for initiating interproximal reduction during orthodontic clear aligner treatment, including Invisalign, ClearCorrect, and other aligner-based orthodontic systems, where the single-sided opener strip at 0.10mm thickness with fine-coarse diamond grit reduces enamel on the proximal surface of one tooth at a time to open tight interproximal contacts and create the initial space needed to begin the progressive interproximal reduction sequence according to the treatment plan. The single-sided opener format applies diamond abrasion to one tooth surface only rather than both adjacent tooth surfaces simultaneously, allowing the clinician to control which surface receives reduction during the opening step and making the clear single-sided opener the appropriate starting strip for breaking tight contacts before progressing to thicker double-sided widener strips that widen the interproximal space bilaterally across the contact point.The clear color-coding identifies this as the 0.10mm fine-coarse single-sided opener within the ContacEZ IPR Plus system's color-coded strip range, providing quick visual identification of the thinnest opening strip in the sequence at the clinical tray setup. Serrated edges along the top and bottom of the strip prevent the strip from slipping out of the interproximal space during the reduction stroke, maintaining the strip's position throughout the reciprocating buccal-lingual reduction movement without the strip riding up gingivally or occlusally during use. Orthodontists, general dentists performing clear aligner treatment, and dental assistants performing chairside IPR as part of an aligner treatment protocol find ContactEZ ContacEZ IPR Plus Strips the clear fine-coarse single-sided diamond serrated autoclavable 0.10mm 8-count pack for their active IPR treatment program. ? Each pack contains 8 individual ContactEZ ContacEZ IPR Plus Interproximal Strips in the clear single-sided fine-coarse serrated format, providing a per-pack strip supply for IPR procedures across multiple aligner treatment appointment slots.Each strip is reusable for approximately 3 to 5 uses before disposal, providing multiple IPR contact-opening events from each strip before the diamond grit becomes insufficient for effective enamel reduction. The 8-strip pack provides a practical per-pack supply for a busy aligner treatment practice performing IPR across multiple patient appointments from a single pack. ? ContactEZ ContacEZ IPR Plus Strips work through their flexible stainless steel substrate with diamond grit coating where the strip's flexibility allows it to curve and conform along the natural proximal convexity of the tooth's contact surface as the clinician passes the strip buccolingually through the interproximal space during the reduction stroke, following the natural curved contour of the proximal surface rather than cutting a flat plane across the contact point the way rigid straight strips can. This curved cutting path creates a naturally rounded proximal surface contour after reduction rather than a flat or angular reduction profile, preventing the formation of sharp corners at the contact zone that could contribute to food impaction or periodontal irritation at the reduced contact area.The fine-coarse diamond grit of the clear single-sided opener provides controlled enamel reduction at the contact opening stage without removing excessive enamel at the initial IPR step, with the strip designed to open the contact and initiate the reduction sequence before the clinician progresses to thicker and coarser double-sided widener strips for the main reduction phase. Steam autoclavable to 270?F for sterilization between uses. ? Orthodontists performing segmental IPR across multiple contacts during a single aligner adjustment appointment find the clear single-sided opener the first strip in the sequence for each new contact that needs reduction, used to break the contact before the widener strips progress the reduction to the planned amount. General dentists performing aligner-based treatment as part of their restorative and cosmetic practice find the ContacEZ IPR Plus system provides the controlled, progressive IPR sequence needed for accurate enamel reduction according to the aligner treatment plan. ? ContactEZ ContacEZ IPR Plus Interproximal Strips, Single-Sided, Fine-Coarse, Clear give dental practices a flexible diamond-coated single-sided opener strip at 0.10mm in the clear format for initiating interproximal reduction at tight contacts during clear aligner treatment, with serrated edges for strip stability, natural contour-following flexibility, steam autoclavable construction, and 3-5 uses per strip, in an 8-strip pack.
