Orthodontic Inter-proximal Stripping Blades is an appropriately designed tool for inter-proximal reduction in orthodontic cases.
Interproximal enamel stripping has become an effective orthodontic treatment approach to regain space, improve tooth and gum aesthetics as well as maintain post-treatment stability. Nevertheless, orthodontists should choose appropriate indications by balancing between its benefits and risks.
ProxiStrip IPR is an innovative, precision dental strip system designed to achieve ideal proximal contact adjustment and complete marginal seating of crowns, veneers, inlays/Onlays, and proximal contouring of composite fillings accurately with minimal time and effort.
IPR System makes interproximal enamel stripping safe and accurate without creating sharp corners or subgingival ledges. Designed for use with orthodontic treatments, these flexible strips curve and conform to the natural contours of the teeth to maximize patient comfort and safety.
The ProxiStrip comes with a sawtooth edge strip (Blade) for cutting through, and five different types of an abrasive corrugated surface strip for cleaning the interdental space and polishing the teeth surface.
Uses :
- Creates space to improve tooth alignment
- Helps to improve the bite/occlusion
- Can increase the stability of the teeth, so they will retain their position long term
- Can reduce “black triangles” , which is created by the absence of gingival papilla between teeth and gives the appearance of a dark space or hole.
Advantages of IPR :
- Decreased treatment time
- Prevention of interdental gingival retraction.
- Help to acquire additional space to create ideal tooth alignment.
- Long handle helps to reach areas with difficult angles.
- Reduces the time spent on any dental operation.
Features:
- Single-handed, ergonomic design offers optimal tactile control and reduces hand fatigue.
- The patient-friendly design prevents gagging and soft tissue irritation.
- Flexible strips conform to the natural contours of the teeth to avoid creating sharp corners.
- Autoclavable and reusable.
- Will not remove excessive enamel.
- Saves chair-time.
- Effective for anterior and posterior areas.
- Unlike traditional discs, the IPR Saw blades are absolutely safe for the patient’s tissues.
- Diamond coating on the blades are strong & uniquely designed holes on the blades help to filter out foreign substances well when stripping.
