Product Description

Description

Fundamental Function:

  • Interproximal reduction contra angel handpiece is the removal of small amounts of outer enamel tooth surface between two adjacent teeth. It is a means to acquire additional space to create ideal tooth alignment.
  • Alternative names include: slenderizing, stripping, enamel reduction, and reproximation.

Inter – proximal Strip Kit :

  • 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.

INDICATIONS :

  • In cases of Crowding / relapse of crowding
  • In malocclusion cases where extraction is not mandatory
  • To correct black triangles in between the teeth
  • In cases when relapses have taken place, stripping is advisable to allow realignment without labial tipping of anterior teeth into unstable position
  • IPR is used for cosmetic re-contouring, most commonly in reshaping canines to mimic lateral incisors

Advantages of IPR :

  • Decreased treatment time
  • Prevention of interdental gingival retraction.
  • Help to acquire additional space to create ideal tooth alignment.
