The Greater Curve tofflemire band improves the quality of your restorations and saves time! Most interproximal composite techniques have one thing in common; force teeth apart with a wedge and separating spring combination. Moving teeth to restore interproximal decay can create the following problems: 1. Wedging teeth produces inconsistent contacts. Especially MOD's. One side tight- the opposite side not so tight. The dentist loses time redoing the contact. 2. A wedge can create a contact with excellent buccal to lingual width but the wedge prevents a contact with depth. A thin marginal ridge contact appears clinically complete, but permits food impaction. Short teeth are particularly difficult, simply not enough room for hardware. 3. A wedge on anterior teeth yields straight line emergence contours resulting in unsightly black triangles. Furthermore, the traditional mylar strip – wedge combo are deplorable at achieving moisture control. The Greater Curve system addresses these concerns. The solution is simple. Restore teeth in a neutral position. Eliminate the need for wedging! Using the Greater Curve tofflemire band allows for: 1. Hardware simplification - A retainer and band is all that is needed 2. Building of tight contacts with width and depth 3. Simplified restoration for teeth with wide interproximal embrasures. 4. Fabricate anterior restorations with rounded emergence contours.
