Dental matrix band tensioner (A hand-held, dental instrument designed for tightening a matrix band around a tooth that is being prepared for a dental restoration. It is a rod-like device, typically designed with a manually controlled rotating action at its distal end for insertion into and tightening of a retainerless matrix band around the tooth. When the matrix band is in place, this device is removed offering a clear field of vision. Some types may incorporate a torque control mechanism to limit over-tensioning. This is a reusable device.)
