The Trimax composite instrument is designed to assist
the dentist in achieving ideal proximal contact
areas in light cured posterior composite restorations.
In addition, the optically clear light tip provides increased
curing ability by allowing efficient light energy
transmission to the full depth of the restoration. By
curing in layers and using focused light energy provided
by the specially designed light tip, post-curing
shrinkage is minimized. The optically clear light tips
are essentially micro light guides. They come in three
sizes; premolar, molar and large molar. Size is selected
based on the size of the preparation. A soft wax
such as periphery wax can be utilized to make an
index of the preparation in order to estimate size.
Each light tip has an annular groove positioned 4mm
above its tip to guide the dentist in achieving an ideal
marginal ridge position for each restoration.
