ABSTRACT:
A dental tool for aiding in forming composite type dental fillings. The tool works by forcing the body of the tooth away from the contact surface on two surface (DO) class II posterior restorations, and by driving adjacent teeth away from contact on DO class II posterior restorations. The tool is a modified set of pliers in which the jaws push outwards when the handles are contracted. The jaws have small tips designed for the typical uses. One is a universal tip for MOD work. A second jaw is used for DO/MO left. The third is used for the DO/MO right.
