A stabilized rubber dam clamp for cervical restorations: a case report

Area of Science:

• Dental materials science
• Restorative dentistry

Background:

• Traditional methods for stabilizing rubber dam clamps can be time-consuming and may lack stability.
• Impression compound has been the conventional material for this purpose.

Observation:

• A novel technique utilizes Triad visible light cured resin for rubber dam clamp stabilization.
• This method involves curing the resin with visible light to achieve stabilization.

Findings:

• The visible light cured resin technique provides effective stabilization for rubber dam clamps.
• This method demonstrates significant advantages compared to using impression compound.

Implications:

• This technique may improve the efficiency and reliability of dental isolation procedures.
• Adoption of this resin-based method could enhance clinical outcomes in restorative dentistry.
