Triodent unveils next-generation matrix system

Triodent has introduced the V4 ClearMetal matrix system, featuring the ClearMetal matrix with microwindows.

ClearMetal is the only transparent matrix with the advantages of metal malleability, the company noted in a press release. Hundreds of microscopic resin-filled windows allow light to pass through the stainless steel, so composite in a class II restoration can be cured laterally and interproximally as well as occlusally, while leaving no imprint on the composite. The microwindows also act like a "ramp cure," where light intensity is increased gradually to reduce initial stress and optimize polymerization. Once the matrix has been removed, the composite can be given a final cure.

The V4 system also includes a new V4 Ring, designed for the full range of embrasure and class II cavity shapes and sizes, and the transparent V4 Wedge, designed to enhance matrix retention and adaptation.

V4 is currently available only in the U.S. through Triodent's exclusive U.S. dealer, Ultradent Products.
