Interproximal Reduction Kit

• Orthodontic Inter-proximal Stripping Kit is an appropriately designed kit for inter-proximal reduction in orthodontic cases.
• INTERPROXIMAL REDUCTION (aka Slenderizing, Stripping, Selective Enamel Reduction and Reproximation)

Advantages of IPR –

• Decreased treatment time
• Prevention of interdental gingival retraction.
• Help to acquire additional space to create ideal tooth alignment.
• Interproximal enamel stripping has become an effective orthodontic treatment approach to regain space, improve tooth and gum aesthetics as well as maintain post-treatment stability. Nevertheless, orthodontists should choose appropriate indications by balancing between its benefits and risks.

Inter – proximal Strip Kit :

• Creates space to improve tooth alignment
• Helps to improve the bite/occlusion
• Can increase the stability of the teeth, so they will retain their position long term
• Can reduce “black triangles” , which is created by the absence of gingival papilla between teeth and gives the appearance of a dark space or hole.

The procedure can be performed using several methods:

• Air rotor stripping with fine tungsten-carbide or diamond burs
• The use of diamond-coated stripping disks
• The use of hand-held or motor-driven abrasive strips.
