KSK Clamp 8A, Winged Molar, Black

KSK 8A · winged · upper molar · black

Grips the part of the crown that is below the margin

Once an upper molar margin runs subgingivally, a clamp that sits on the visible crown is holding the wrong part of the tooth. The 8A carries deeply festooned beaks drawn to reach past the gingival crest and take hold of the subgingival crown – Dentech's own description of what it is for.

This item: 1 × KSK rubber dam clamp No.8A, winged, black
Made by Dentech, Japan · Black finish · supplied singly

› Wingless version – the W8A, for a clear view of the beaks going down.
› Normal cervical contour: the No.5 is enough.
› Seal the resulting gap with OraSeal™ caulking or Cerkamed rubber dam liquid.

Will it blanch the tissue?
Beaks placed below the gingival margin will. That is expected and recovers; what is not acceptable is forcing a clamp that will only stay by being driven onto bone.

8A or 14A?
The 8A for a fully erupted tooth with a subgingival margin, the 14A for a molar that is only partly erupted.
