Maestro Matrix Master. Matrix band application and removal instrument
Developed by Australian dentists and dental students in Far North Queensland.
The Matrix Master represents a significant advancement in dental technology. This instrument is specifically tailored to mitigate health and safety risks associated with sharps injuries.
The Maestro Matrix Master features a double-sided design: one side facilitates the placement of matrix bands, while the other aids in their removal. The placement side incorporates a fork-like design with carefully positioned slots, enabling perpendicular engagement with the matrix band surface and facilitating precise force application. Additionally, it includes a knurled base that enhances grip when securing the band in the seated position during tightening. The opposite end of the Matrix Master utilises a teardrop to aid safe removal of the band.
