Dentsply Palodent Matrix System Refills

The Palodent System is indicated whenever a restoration will involve interproximal surfaces to facilitate the contouring of a direct placement of restorative materials

The Palodent V3 Sectional Matrix system is comprised of six precisely designed components; rings, matrices, wedges, WedgeGuards®, forceps and pin tweezers.  All of which have been designed and refined for optimal performance individually and as a system.  As a result, Palodent V3 is amongst the most simple and accurate matrix systems available on today’s market.

Palodent Plus is a sectional matrix system that delivers easy, predictable and accurate contact creation by utilising advanced ring, matrix and wedge technology. Palodent Plus offers you accurate contacts and tight marginal seal, minimised overhang and finishing, easy placement and removal.
