Testimonials
“Until recently, we have relied on either Teflon tape of various celluloid strips when performing anterior tooth restorations…You will no longer be dependent on your assistant holding the matrix or bulky wedges if you use this cost-effective matrix system. Kudos to Dr Jacobson for creating a time-saving solution to a common problem that can enhance our ability to create beautiful anterior restorations.”
• Dr Howard Glazer, DDS, FAGD. USA
“I love using the Butterfly Matrix – it provides excellent isolation when working on anterior composite veneers or even interdental fillings on both upper and lower anteriors. The all-in-one design, combining the wedge and the silicon sheet that acts like a dam, is incredibly easy to place and comfortable for patients. In most cases, it doesn’t even require anaesthetic or the use of painful wooden wedges. There’s no hassle of holding a plastic strip in place, either. I absolutely enjoy working with the Butterfly Matrix and use it almost every day!”

FAQ
The Butterfly Matrix is a revolutionary tool designed to make anterior restorations better, easier, faster.
It’s perfect for protecting and isolating adjacent teeth and creating flawless restorations in Class 3 and Class 4 cases, diastema cases, as well as for direct veneer applications in the anterior zone. It replaces flimsy celluloid strips, Teflon tape, and stiff wedges.
The matrix is made of clear, stretchable rubber strips that are easy to slip through contact points, while the wedge adapts perfectly to the space between the gums. This eliminates the hassle of using traditional tools like Teflon tape and wedges separately.
Secure and Hands-Free
It has a built-in wedge and flexible lingual wings that hold it securely in place. This means you can work with confidence, even with high-speed evacuation, without worrying about it slipping or moving.
Improved Efficiency
By combining a matrix and wedge in one design, it ensures optimal contact points while protecting adjacent teeth. You save time and effort, making your restorations more efficient and precise.
The Butterfly Matrix takes the stress out of anterior restorations, giving you more control, better outcomes, and happier patients.
