Bioclear™ TruContact 2.0 Interproximal Saws and Sanders

Bioclear™ TruContact 2.0 Saws and Sanders are designed to work in sequence to gently lighten tight proximal contacts, allowing for passive placement of Bioclear Matrices. Creating a slightly open contact allows the matrix to seat comfortably without distortion.

TruContact 2.0 Saws and Sanders help protect adjacent teeth from unnecessary abrasion during single-tooth restorations. Additionally, they remove interproximal biofilm.

• Use the Blue serrated saw before and after composite curing to remove any residual materials.
• Use the Orange single-sided, light diamond saw to enter very tight interproximal contacts and gently relieve the contact.
• Use the Red single-sided, heavy diamond saw when additional contact relief is required after the orange saw.
• Autoclavable up to 280 times (steam heat only, not dry heat)

TruContact 2.0 Saws and Sanders are intended to be used conservatively and in sequence. Always start with the Blue saw. Then, insert the Orange sander, make a single controlled back-and-forth motion, remove it, and try seating the matrix. If additional relief is needed, move to the Red sander. repeat Red if necessary.

Please sand only the teeth you will restore, and avoid repeated sawing motions, as you would with interproximal reduction (IPR) strips, as excessive sawing may over-open the contact.
