English term

crimp

English to Italian Medical Medical: Dentistry lamina della matrice
The height of the sectional matrix should be no higher than the adjacent marginal ridge when properly placed. Because of the concave anatomic shape, the proximal contact will be located approximately one millimeter apical to the height of the marginal ridge. The XXX Matrix Forceps is used to place the selected sectional matrix band in the correct orientation in the proximal area.
The positive grip of this instrument will allow for more exact placement than a cotton plier, which could damage, or ** crimp ** the matrix band. The sectional matrix band is positioned and placed using the XXX Matrix Forceps to the mesial proximal area of tooth number 14 (Figure 5).
