Abstract

Given the increasing incidence of root caries in the elderly population, clinicians frequently must isolate and restore subgingival preparations. This article demonstrates a technique utilizing a modified Tofflemire matrix band that creates a preparation free of crevicular fluid and blood for restoration with resin-modified glass ionomer cement.
