Types

Dental Gingival Margin Trimmer (GMT) is an essential hand instrument designed to shape and refine tooth structure during restorative procedures. Specifically, the GMT is vital for creating precise axiopulpal bevels in Class II amalgam restorations and removing undermined tooth structure at the gingival cavosurface margin. This instrument is also indispensable for shaping bevels on inlays and onlays, ensuring a smooth, accurate fit when held at the correct angle. Available in both mesial and distal versions, the GMT is used to sharpen line angles and can even be employed to create retention grooves, adding extra versatility to its applications in restorative dentistry.

The GMT is crafted from high-quality, imported stainless steel, offering superior durability and a sharp working tip for enhanced precision. Its lightweight design ensures ease of use, reducing hand fatigue during prolonged procedures. The non-corrosive material ensures that the instrument can withstand repeated sterilization cycles, making it fully autoclavable and maintaining its sharpness and integrity over time. These attributes make the Dental GMT a reliable and indispensable tool for dental professionals, whether they are performing routine restorations or more complex procedures involving inlays and onlays.
