My practice partner thinks siqveland bands are crap, and loves his
tofflemires. I think the opposite.

what do others think?

Every dentist has his own preferences.

Bill--

I'm abashed to say I had to look up "siqveland matrix".

I'm mainly a Tofflemire person too.

I do use Palodent rings with sectional matrices, but a lot of my
proximal preps are too narrow to get the pre-formed matrix through.
Then I have to cut a piece out of a regular band. If I do that,
I might as well put in a tight wedge and give it a few minutes
to spread the teeth.

'Course, on the monster preps, rings don't work either.

I had to search for that sick-ville thingie, but it seems that
all anyone was concerned about was sterilization techniques.

;-)
