Description

The Ivory Matrix Band Retainer No. 8N is a precision restorative dental instrument designed to securely hold matrix bands during direct restorative procedures. Its reliable Ivory No. 8N design provides consistent matrix band retention, ensuring proper adaptation around the tooth for the creation of accurate proximal contacts and anatomically contoured restorations using composite or amalgam materials.

Manufactured from premium surgical grade stainless steel, this matrix retainer offers excellent mechanical strength, superior corrosion resistance, and long-lasting durability. The precision-engineered locking head securely grips the matrix band while allowing smooth adjustment and controlled tightening for stable placement throughout the restorative procedure.

The ergonomic knurled thumb screw enables precise control of matrix band tension with minimal effort, providing a secure grip even while wearing clinical gloves. Its slim profile improves access to posterior teeth while maintaining excellent visibility within the operative field, contributing to efficient and predictable restorative outcomes.

Designed for repeated professional use, the Ivory Matrix Band Retainer No. 8N is fully autoclavable and retains its functionality through frequent sterilization cycles. It is an essential instrument for general dentists, restorative specialists, dental schools, and clinical practices requiring dependable matrix band stabilization.

To maintain the performance, appearance, and service life of your stainless steel dental and surgical instruments, follow these care guidelines:

  • Clean instruments immediately after use to prevent blood, tissue, or debris from drying on the surface.
  • Wash using a neutral pH enzymatic detergent and a soft nylon brush. Avoid abrasive pads, steel wool, or harsh chemicals.
  • Rinse thoroughly with distilled or demineralized water to minimize mineral deposits and corrosion.
  • Dry completely before sterilization or storage, paying special attention to hinges, joints, and serrations where moisture can accumulate.
  • Lubricate hinged and moving instruments regularly with a medical-grade, steam-permeable instrument lubricant to ensure smooth operation.
  • Sterilize using validated autoclave procedures or other approved sterilization methods according to healthcare facility protocols and the instrument’s intended use.
  • Store instruments in a clean, dry environment with tips and cutting edges protected from impact or contact with other instruments.
  • Inspect instruments before each use for wear, corrosion, misalignment, or damage. Remove any defective instrument from service until repaired or replaced.
  • Do not expose stainless steel instruments to bleach, strong acids, high-chloride solutions, or prolonged soaking, as these may cause staining, pitting, or corrosion.
  • Use each instrument only for its intended purpose to preserve precision, functionality, and patient safety.
