It makes clean, sharp punctures in all rubber dam thicknesses, so the dam fits each tooth without tearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eDesign and Handling\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe wheel lets you choose a hole size to suit the tooth: a smaller hole for incisors and a larger one for molars, so the dam seals tightly around the neck. A clean-cut hole is much less likely to tear when the dam is stretched over the clamp.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMark the dam, rotate the wheel to the size you want, position the punch over the mark and squeeze. Check the hole for a clean edge before placement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eRubber Dam Tips\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eIsolation is easiest when the setup is ready before the patient is seated. Punch the dam, choose a clamp, and check that the frame, forceps and floss are within reach. A dry, isolated field improves visibility, protects the airway from irrigant and debris, and keeps saliva off the tooth during bonding and root canal work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRinse and dry rubber dam instruments after each case, and watch for latex dust, cement or disinfectant residue building up in joints and holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKeeping a spare clamp plate, frame and forceps on the endodontic tray also means isolation is never delayed while an instrument is being reprocessed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eMaterial and Sterilization\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade from medical grade stainless steel. Autoclavable for repeated sterilization cycles. Clean and dry the instrument after each use, and check the working ends for wear or damage before it goes into the pouch.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eProduct Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul class=\"feature-list\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAinsworth pattern rubber dam punch, 17cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRotating wheel with five hole sizes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClean, sharp punctures in all dam thicknesses\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTear-free fit around each tooth\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeavy-duty construction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedical grade stainless steel, autoclavable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"SurgiWorld","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67751015317818,"sku":"ED351","price":149.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/2975\/5194\/files\/Rubber-Dam-Punch-Ainsworth-17-cm.jpg?v=1792584655","url":"https:\/\/thedentalsolutions.ca\/products\/surgiworld-rubber-dam-punch-ainsworth-17-cm-ed351","provider":"Dental Solutions","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
