Composi-Tight® 3D Fusion™ Wedges fuse two materials together to produce the perfect combination of adaptability and retention. Other features and benefits include:
- Only Composi-Tight 3D Fusion wedges have Soft-Face technology. A soft, rubberized material is fused to the firm plastic core. The wedge gently molds itself to root irregularities as you insert it providing an unsurpassed seal.
- Soft retentive fins along the gingival edges fold in smoothly during wedge insertion. These spring back when clear of the interproximal space - firmly locking Composi-Tight 3D Fusion in place.
- Regardless of your preferred matrix system, these ultra-adaptive wedges will help you produce your best, most predictable restorations ever.
