Short ring; for bicuspids, premolars, pedo, and short crowns Ultra-Grip extensions; anchors to any tooth; no spring-off Tru-Stack compatible; tall ring stacks over blue for MOD Soft-Face silicone tips; marginal ridge; flash-free results 0% improved separating force; over-wedge placement; durable Quantity: 2 per Pack Garrison Composi-Tight 3D Fusion Sectional Matrix Ring, Short, Blue is used for holding sectional matrix bands in place against the tooth during posterior composite restorations on bicuspids, premolars, pediatric teeth, and any posterior tooth with a short clinical crown. The short ring's lower profile provides correct height coverage for these tooth types without the excessive occlusal projection of a taller molar ring, making it the default ring for most restorations in the 3D Fusion system, while a taller ring is reserved for standard-height molars and MOD restorations requiring both rings stacked simultaneously. Each pack contains 2 rings, color-coded blue.Dental offices ordering sectional matrix rings from their supplier often buy this short blue ring as the primary option for premolar and short-crown cases. The Ultra-Grip retention extensions anchor the ring against the buccal and lingual tooth structure at the gingival third of the crown, preventing it from springing off during wedge placement, composite packing, and condensation. The Tru-Stack design allows a taller ring to be placed over this short ring on the same tooth for MOD and multi-surface restorations, isolating both proximal boxes at once rather than requiring two separate placement steps. The Soft-Face silicone tips include built-in marginal ridge anatomy, hugging the pre-contoured matrix band closely to the proximal surface at the marginal ridge level.This close adaptation helps prevent composite from escaping beyond the band margins during condensation, supporting flash-free proximal restorations that require less finishing after the ring is removed.

Curved Narrow 4.5 mm; pre-contoured to tooth shape Longer band for larger teeth; restores proximal contours Superior cervical seal; grabs teeth with limited support Screw stays stationary during tightening; patient comfort Yellow color-coded; single-use; no assembly or tools needed Quantity: 50 per Pack Young Dental Pro-Matrix Curved Disposable Pre-Assembled Matrix Band and Retainer, Narrow, Yellow is used for Class II amalgam and composite restorations where the pre-contoured curved band design provides an anatomically contoured matrix profile that restores the natural interproximal curvature and contact area geometry of the posterior tooth surface more accurately than a straight band. The Curve format suits anatomically challenging posterior restorations, teeth with pronounced proximal curvature, and cases where a flat proximal profile would produce a flattened or insufficient contact in the completed restoration. Each pack contains 50 units, color coded yellow, with a narrow 4.5mm band height.Dental offices ordering curved matrix bands from their supplier can buy this format for larger posterior teeth, since the pre-contoured curvature provides additional band length relative to the straight format, accommodating molars and larger premolars where a standard straight band's circumference may fall short at the widest part of the crown. The curved profile also improves the band's ability to grip teeth with limited coronal support, such as short clinical crowns or preparations approaching the gingival margin, by conforming the band more closely to the available tooth surface for better retention during material placement. The pre-contoured curved band forms a superior cervical seal against the tooth surface at the gingival margin, keeping the preparation cleaner and drier during placement than a straight flat band that doesn't conform to curved root surface anatomy. A stationary screw design keeps the tightening screw from rotating and pressing against the patient's cheek or tongue during tightening, improving patient comfort during matrix placement.

Ultra-thin profile fits narrow interproximal spaces Anatomical shape supports matrix band adaptation Slightly compressible wood supports tooth separation Sycamore wood resists splintering in thin sections Orange color identifies the Ultra-Thin size Quantity: 400 per Pack Premier Dental Sycamore Wood Wedges, Ultra-Thin, Orange are used for interproximal wedging during restorative procedures where matrix band adaptation, controlled tooth separation, and contact formation are important. The Ultra-Thin profile is designed for narrow interproximal spaces where a standard wedge may be too bulky, while the anatomical shape helps the wedge seat securely between adjacent teeth and support the matrix against the preparation, and sycamore wood provides slight compressibility so the wedge can adapt under pressure while maintaining its form throughout the restorative procedure. Each pack contains 400 anatomically shaped wedges, orange in color to identify the Ultra-Thin variant within the Premier Dental wedge range.Dental offices ordering interproximal wedges from their supplier can buy this Ultra-Thin size for narrow embrasure spaces where a larger wedge could interfere with access or matrix positioning, since the wedges are shaped to follow interproximal anatomy while providing localized support for restorative matrix systems, and the high 400-count package supports repeated use across a busy restorative schedule without frequent reordering. The wedge functions by seating between adjacent teeth and applying controlled separation while helping adapt the matrix band closely against the tooth. The slightly compressible sycamore wood allows the wedge to conform under pressure and helps compensate for matrix band thickness during restorative placement. Once the wedge and matrix are removed, the teeth can return toward their original position, supporting the intended proximal contact relationship.The wood is also designed to resist splintering even in thin sections, which is particularly important for an Ultra-Thin wedge, and together, the anatomical shape, compressibility, and material strength support stable matrix adaptation during Class II and other interproximal restorative procedures requiring precise contact management and reliable matrix stability.

5.5 mm small molar size supports posterior use 0.0016 inch thickness preserves contact space Dead-soft steel adapts closely around anatomy Polytetrafluoroethylene coating limits adhesion Purple color simplifies size identification Quantity: 100 per Pack Garrison Slick Bands Molar Matrices, 5.5mm, Small, Purple is used for sectional matrix procedures during posterior Class II composite restorations where adaptation around smaller molars and controlled proximal contour are required. The purple small-molar matrix combines a dead-soft stainless-steel base with a micro-thin PTFE non-stick coating designed to reduce adhesion between restorative materials and the matrix surface, and its precontoured sectional form supports placement around proximal preparations while maintaining the thin profile needed for contact development. Each pack contains 100 bands, measuring 5.4mm in height, 1.6mm in profile-view width, 15.67mm in length, with an overall thickness of 0.0016 inch.Dental offices ordering sectional matrix bands from their supplier can buy this small-molar purple size to distinguish it from other Slick Bands configurations, since color coding gives the clinical team a quick visual method for identifying the correct size during restorative setup. During use, the sectional matrix is positioned around the prepared proximal surface and stabilized as part of the clinician's chosen matrix, wedge, and separation-ring technique. The dead-soft stainless steel allows the band to adapt closely to tooth anatomy without the springiness associated with firmer matrix materials, while the PTFE coating creates a non-stick surface intended to limit bonding-agent and resin adhesion, which can help simplify band removal after polymerization. Because the coating remains micro-thin, the finished matrix retains the dimensional profile needed for controlled proximal contact formation, giving the small-molar shape an anatomy-specific option between smaller bicuspid matrices and larger molar bands.
