About Blue titanium-coated frame, punch and clamp forceps
Our blue titanium-coated rubber dam instruments cover the three hand-instrument jobs in dental dam work: holding the sheet, making its openings and placing the clamp. The dam sheet itself forms the barrier; these instruments prepare it, hold it and secure it.
Three instruments, three jobs
- U-shaped frame: projecting attachments around the frame hold the sheet taut and out of the working area, so the isolated teeth stay accessible.
- Rotary-disc punch: a punch tip works against a perforated rotating disc. Turning the disc selects a different opening, so one punch can make the openings a case needs.
- Clamp forceps: paired engagement tips grip the clamp so it can be opened, carried to the tooth and released in place.
Clamp, forceps and sheet
These three terms are easy to mix up. The clamp is the small retention component that sits on the tooth; the clamp forceps are the instrument that handles it. The sheet is the barrier, held by the frame and opened by the punch. When you order, name the instrument you need, and list clamps or sheets separately if you need them too.
Blue titanium-coated finish
This configuration has a blue titanium-coated surface finish, which also makes the instruments easy to pick out on a tray.
