Aurix Matrix & Band Retainer System Kit

The Aurix Matrix & Band Retainer System Kit centres on a Tofflemire matrix band retainer. It helps you build tight contacts and good contours in Class II fillings. In addition, the kit includes bands in five sizes.

What is in the matrix band retainer

Each set includes the following instruments:

• Tofflemire universal matrix retainer
• Matrix bands No. 1, 2, 3, 13 and 14 (12 strips each)
• 150 mm locking college tweezer
• Stainless steel sterilisation tray

Where to use this set

Clinicians use this set for:

• Class II composite restorations
• Amalgam restorations
• Core build-ups
• Training clinics

Who is it for?

This set suits general dentists, specialists, hygienists and dental schools. It also works well for clinics that want one standard set in every surgery. Each kit comes with its own tray, so storage and sterilisation stay simple. Moreover, a matching set in each room saves time when you move between patients.

Materials and design

Aurix makes the retainer and tweezer from corrosion-resistant stainless steel. The retainer locks the band securely around the tooth. Therefore, the band stays stable while you place material.

Why choose this set

Every set ships ready for clinical use, so set-up takes minutes. The fixed tray layout also makes counting instruments quick before and after each case. In addition, a consistent layout helps new assistants learn the set faster. Finally, Aurix inspects each instrument before packing, so you receive a complete and working set.

Caring for your matrix band retainer

First, clean the instruments soon after use so debris does not dry on them. Then inspect tips, edges and hinges before each cycle. Also, follow the validated cycle from your autoclave maker. As a result, the set keeps its precision for years. For current infection-control advice, see the CDC dental infection control guidance.
