“…The clip can be inserted into the tubes of In the current study, the FDI criterion was used to evaluate the proximal contact tightness with the help of dental floss, and scoring was done by the scoring guidelines. Kakollu Sudha et al 24 adopted the same criterion for scoring proximal contact tightness in pre-contoured selfadhesive matrix strips. Dental floss seems to be a practical approach in the clinical scenario to assess the nature of proximal contacts, but variation in the size, direction of force, and type of floss can affect the outcomes.…”

“…The saddle matrix generated a better score in proximal contact tightness, but there was no significant difference between the two groups. Kakollu Sudha et al concluded that the proximal contact tightness of two different matrix band materials was not significantly different 24 . Kampouropoulos et al 3 concluded that no technique was ideal for reconstructing the proximal contact characteristics of a healthy tooth.…”

Objective: To evaluate composite class II restoration proximal contacts and contours by comparing saddle-contoured metal matrix and pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix system. Method: The randomised controlled trial (NCT05414656) was conducted at the Department of Operative Dentistry, School of Dentistry, Shaheed Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto Medical University, Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences, Islamabad, Pakistan, from May to October 2022, and comprises the patients having supra-gingival class II cavities. They were randomised into class II restoration with saddle-contoured matrix band group A, and restoration with pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix group B. The tightness of proximal contacts was evaluated using the Fédération Dentaire Internationale criteria and the quality of proximal contours was assessed using clinical and radiographic examination. Data was analysed using SPSS 16. Results: Of the 60 subjects, 42(70%) were females and 18(30%) were males. The overall mean age was 38.03±15.33 years. There were 30(50%) subjects in each of the 2 groups. The highest restoration was needed in the upper premolar 20(33.3%). The tightness of proximal contact was not significantly different between the groups (p=0.94). Clinical examination for production of good contours was higher in group A compared to group B, but the difference was not significant (p>0.05). Conclusion: There was no significant difference between saddle-contoured metal matrix and pre-contoured self-adhesive matrix for composite class II restoration proximal contacts and contours.
