Bioclear Biofit HD Posterior Mini Kit - Matrix System for Posterior Class II Restorations

Biofit HD Posterior Mini Kit-Matrix system for posterior Class II restorations

The Biofit HD Posterior Mini Kit contains a range of Biofit HD Matrices Molar 4.5mm, 5.5mm and 6.5mm (appropriate for 75% of posterior molar cases) pre molar 5.5mm and also includes Diamond Wedges (which have strong separation yet require less effort to place than traditional wedges)

Biofit HD Series

The HD series Bioclear Biofit matrices introduce new matrix technology and designs that ensure ideal tooth contours and a heavier material that ensures easier placement

The HD series Bioclear Biofit matrices introduce new matrix technology and designs that ensure ideal tooth contours. Formed with translucent white 75µ mylar, the stiffer mylar and placement tab provide a rigid structure that makes the matrix easy to place.

The translucence of the mylar allows ample light to pass through for thorough light curing. Mylar matrices also leave the composite more polished and contoured than traditional metal matrices which leave a more matte finish.

In addition, the new shape of the Biofit matrices offers 30% more buccal/lingual and occlusal wrap than traditional matrices and will be appropriate for 75% of all posterior molar cases.

The new Biofit HD matrices come in four sizes; Molar 4.5 mm, 5.5 mm, 6.5 mm, and Pre-Molar 5.5 mm

Diamond Wedges and Long Diamond Wedges

The Bioclear Diamond Wedge is designed to solve many of the difficulties in using traditional, rigid wedges.

The Diamond Wedge requires less effort to place than traditional wedges due to the diamond-shaped cut-out in the tip, which collapses during insertion. The wedge then springs open once through the embrasure, creating a tight seal and preventing the wedge from backing out.

While still maintaining strong tooth separation, the flexibility of the Diamond Wedge creates an excellent marginal adaptation that eliminates the uncontrolled flow of excess composite and minimizes clean-up after the composite has been cured.

The Diamond Wedge is offered in both original and long. The Original Diamond Wedge is intended for most cases. The Long Diamond Wedge is approximately 2mm longer than the original wedge and is intended to be used when working on wider molars. Typically long wedges are used in conjunction with the Pink or Orange Evolve matrices

Clinical Tips

1. Used with a rubber dam

2. Choose the correct matrix – Use a Bioclear clear matrix for simultaneous buccal & lingual curing

3. Use Bioclear Forceps, as designed specifically for the Twin Ring

4. Check for proper matrix orientation

5. Seat deep into sulcus Use the MATRIX SELECTION GUIDE on the back of the instructions to help select the appropriate matrix.

6. Use Bioclear Forceps with the Twin Ring. The Bioclear Forceps are specifically designed for safely and securely opening and placing the Twin Ring.

7. Ensure that the tines of the forceps are completely engaged with the plastic handles of the Twin Ring (see below). If they are not fully engaged or if the tines are seated on the metal, then it can cause the Twin Ring to break.
