Samit Matrix / Mylar Strip 200 Pcs
Samit Matrix / Mylar Strip (200 pcs) are transparent, flexible dental matrix strips designed to aid in forming accurate, clean restorations, particularly in tight interproximal spaces. These strips help contour restorative materials and ensure seamless fillings with excellent marginal adaptation.

Features:
-
Precise Contouring: Supports effective formation of proximal contacts.
-
High Flexibility: Adapts well to varied tooth anatomies for superior restorations.
-
Durable Material: Strong enough to maintain form during placement and composite curing.
-
Clear Transparency: Allows light-curing without removal for efficient bonding.
-
Prevents Overhangs: Controls excess composite flow for cleaner restorations.
-
User-Friendly Handling: Straight strips are easy to position and remove.
-
Multi-Material Compatible: Works with composite, GIC, and amalgam.
-
Optimal Marginal Finish: Promotes smooth, natural-looking results.

1. Tooth Preparation
-
Clean and isolate the tooth using a rubber dam or cotton rolls.
-
Remove carious tissue and shape the cavity appropriately.
-
If using composite, etch, rinse, and apply bonding agent as per protocol.
2. Placing the Mylar Strip
-
Select the appropriate size and thickness of the strip.
-
Wrap the strip around the tooth, ensuring it conforms to the natural tooth contour.
-
Make sure it extends slightly below the gingival margin to prevent overhangs.
-
Secure the strip using one of the following:
-
Finger pressure during composite placement, or
-
Interproximal wedge to stabilize the strip and ensure a tight seal.
-
3. Composite Placement & Shaping
-
Place the composite in incremental layers to ensure proper curing and adaptation.
-
Use a plastic or Teflon-coated instrument to shape and contour the material to the tooth anatomy.
4. Light Curing
-
The transparent Mylar strip allows full light penetration, enabling direct curing.
-
Cure from multiple angles (buccal, lingual, and incisal) to ensure complete polymerization.
5. Removing the Mylar Strip
-
After curing, gently remove the strip in a buccolingual or incisal direction to prevent disrupting the restoration.
-
Remove any excess material or flash around the restoration margins.
6. Finishing & Polishing
-
Refine the restoration using fine finishing burs or abrasive polishing strips.
-
Check proximal contacts and occlusion, adjusting as necessary for comfort and functionality.
-
Ensures accurate tooth anatomy recreation
-
Saves time during interproximal restoration and finishing
-
Enhances aesthetics with a natural finish
-
Reduces risk of adjacent tooth bonding
-
