Tooth Clamp for Filling – Stainless Steel Rubber Dam Clamp for Restorative Dentistry

The Tooth Clamp for Filling from Peak Surgicals is a reusable rubber dam clamp manufactured from stainless steel, designed to engage the tooth at critical cervical contact points and anchor the rubber dam sheet securely during direct filling procedures — including composite resin and glass ionomer restorations — where moisture control is essential for bonding and material set. Sold as a single piece, this clamp is used by general dentists and restorative clinicians in dental practices, dental schools, and hospital dental departments worldwide.

Designed for Rubber Dam Isolation During Restorative Filling Procedures

The Tooth Clamp for Filling is specifically suited to restorative applications where rubber dam isolation is required to achieve a clean, dry field for direct filling materials. Moisture contamination during composite resin placement disrupts the adhesive bonding process at the enamel and dentine interface, leading to marginal failure, microleakage, and premature restoration loss. Glass ionomer cements similarly require a moisture-controlled environment during placement and initial set. Rubber dam isolation maintained by a properly seated tooth clamp eliminates salivary and sulcular fluid contamination throughout the filling procedure, from cavity preparation and conditioning through to final restoration placement and initial light curing or set.

Four-Point Cervical Engagement for Secure Clamp Retention

The Tooth Clamp for Filling engages the anchor tooth at four contact points along the cervical contour, providing circumferential grip that resists displacement during cavity preparation, adhesive application, and filling material placement. The spring tension of the clamp jaws maintains consistent cervical contact without requiring operator attention once the clamp is seated, allowing the clinician to focus on the restoration without the distraction of monitoring clamp stability. Selecting a clamp profile that fits the crown anatomy of the anchor tooth correctly is essential — a poorly fitting clamp will rock, disrupt the rubber dam seal, and require repositioning during the procedure.

Restorative and Endodontic Rubber Dam Isolation Applications

While specifically named for filling procedures, the Tooth Clamp for Filling is a rubber dam clamp suited to any clinical situation requiring moisture control through rubber dam isolation. This includes direct composite resin restorations, glass ionomer and resin-modified glass ionomer placement, rubber dam-assisted tooth bleaching, resin cement luting of indirect restorations, and root canal treatment when the clamp profile fits the anchor tooth. The clamp is a standard component of restorative dental trays in general dental practices, dental schools, and hospital dental departments.

Stainless Steel Construction for Repeated Clinical Use

Each Tooth Clamp for Filling is manufactured from stainless steel, providing the structural rigidity required to maintain consistent jaw spread against the cervical anatomy of the anchor tooth under repeated clinical use and sterilization cycles. The clamp is rust-free and maintains its bow and jaw geometry across extended use, ensuring reliable cervical contact and rubber dam retention throughout the service life of the instrument in high-turnover restorative dental environments.

CE Mark, ISO 13485, and FDA Certification for Dental Instrument Procurement

The Tooth Clamp for Filling is manufactured under CE Mark, ISO 13485, and FDA compliant quality standards. ISO 13485 certification confirms Peak Surgicals operates a documented quality management system covering design control, material traceability, and production consistency for dental instruments. CE Mark confirms conformity with European medical device regulations, and FDA compliance supports procurement for US-based dental practices, dental schools, and hospital dental departments requiring verified regulatory documentation.
