"Since incorporating the V3 Ring into the arsenal, I no longer worry about creating good contacts. I can achieve ideal contours at the proximal margins due to the way that the bands adapt to the tooth and the V3 Rings keep the bands adapted and contoured."

"Composite interproximal contacts are a snap with Triodent's V3 Ring. Stability and ease of placement, anatomic angulation, and plastic tines that accommodate wedges comfortably, V3 all-NiTi rings deliver predictable contacts every time."
Dr George Freedman, DDS, FAACD, FACD
“So, I bought a new ring system at the ADA meeting on a whim. I used it for the first time and had a sinking feeling in my stomach. I instantly realized how much frustration I had had with all the other ring systems that I've used over the years. The V3 system may be the perfect design for establishing interproximal contacts with composite.”
Dr Todd Ehrlich, DDS on Dentaltown."
"Every once in a while, I come across a truly innovative company in the dental industry that vastly improves the services we provide by using products that are tremendous enhancements. Triodent, a NZ based company is one such - founded by an English dentist by the name of Dr Simon McDonald. Their V-Ring and V3 Ring sectional matrix systems are the best I have ever used and I have used the Palodent and Garrison since their inception. An outstanding product range is also augmented by triple impression trays that are fantastic."
The ACE Institute
"With Triodent's V3 Matrix System, we now have a simple solution for creating tight-fitting and natural-looking contacts when restoring posterior teeth with direct composite material."
Dr Ara Nazarian, DDS
"Love it, love it. I can't believe I practiced for the last 13 years without it. Damn, I am embarrassed that my Class II fillings would look like straight walls without the contours!"

"It would always frustrate me when you would try and put a matrix band around a posterior tooth and it would only seat on one side. The V3 Ring has been a blessing to my practice because not only does it eliminate my matrix band frustrations, but never have I had a problem getting a contact on a posterior tooth, which makes me and my patients happy. The product gets me such tight contacts that sometimes I have trouble getting the matrix band out after the procedure is complete. The system is so quick and easy to use and my favorite part is still the wedges that mimic the gingival papillae. Thanks again."

"Using the Triodent V3 has been an outstanding restorative experience. I thought my methods and materials for restorative procedures were at the highest level, then I purchased Triodent's V3 system. After the first restoration I could see how much greater adaptation, better contours and tighter contacts this system creates. I am thoroughly impressed and delighted with this product."

"When my V3 Rings are sterilizing and I have to resort to using other methods, no matter how hard I try, I cannot get close to the results I achieve with the V3 Rings. They help me to produce the most anatomical contours and tightest contacts of any system I have tried, and I have tried many."

"The V3 Ring is the best ring I have ever worked with. It actually perfected Triodent's previous version of ring. It stays very rigidly in the interproximal area. It doesn't slip on the tooth or in the ring forceps. If you want the perfect contact with optimal contours you have to use the V3 Ring."

"The V3 Ring and associated matrices and Wave-Wedges are awesome. I have been placing posterior composites for about 15 years and used to struggle to get good proximal contours and contacts. Now, getting solid proximal contacts and proper proximal contours with minimal flash is almost automatic with the Triodent ring, matrix and wedge system. Just this morning I did a DOL with a deep proximal box on #2 and an adjacent MO on #1. There’s no way I could have accomplished this without the V3 Ring. I think these radiographs (pre-op and post-op) say everything about how this system allows dentists to accomplish what was once considered virtually impossible."Dr William Lin, DDS

"Incomparably the most user-friendly, reliable composite matrix system on the market. Impressively tight contacts every time! I've already been telling all my fellow dentists about it since I started using the system. Love the Wave-Wedges too. It's amazing that something so anatomically correct and functional hadn't been invented before."
Dr Noelle Bunt

I use my V3 system many times a day. The interproximal contact I can get with the system is fantastic. I feel much more secure using the V3 system as I have never had a ring ‘pop off'. The three matrices give great choice. I use the V3 system for all my Class II posterior composites and many Class II amalgams. I love this system!!!"."

"We have been using the V3 Ring for the last few months at our clinic and we are hooked! We are five dentists at the clinic and we are all using them now. We think that our composite restorations are reaching a higher level of quality. It is much more satisfactory for the dentist to work with. They give a great comfort for the patient, both during treatment and after with the function of the restoration. So, please never stop producing those little miracles!! Greetings from Denmark."

I have been using the V-Ring since my graduation. I used to have to make a lot of time-consuming adjustments as a student using the Tofflemire matrices. My search for an easier way to restore led me to order the original V-Rings and Simon gave me a student discount as well. I am glad I switched to the V-Ring. With the advent of the V3 it has become even easier for me to restore - and more comfortable for my patients. I have even got my associate hooked on it. Thanks again for making it easier."

"I have been using the V3 Ring system and the V-Ring before it for two years and have found it to be an excellent product. I can routinely create a tight contact area between the teeth, and find the wedging system also very easy to insert and use. The soft matrices are easy to insert using the tweezers that come as part of the kit. In all it is an excellent product and an invaluable product for placing Class II composite restorations."
Dr Stephen Lazarus, C.Ch.D
Prestwich, Manchester

"The V3 Ring has made my life easier from not having to adjust nearly the amount of interproximal flash as the previous rings. It is very durable and does not distort as easy as the previous ring either. Thank you, V3 Ring!!!"

"I have used every system on the market and hands down, no competition, your system with the plastic wedges, matrix and of course the V3 gives me the predictable contacts that I need and the patients deserve. Thanks for creating such a nice system. Finally, posterior Class II restorations are predictable, fun and rewarding."
Dr Gordon H West, DDS

"I was a Tofflemire matrix band user for years and the earlier sectional matrix designs, although a fine idea, did not convince me to make a change. The V3 was a slam dunk for me and now I routinely use them to place my Class II restorations. You took a great concept and made it practical for the clinician. Thanks!"

"I have been using the V3 Ring since it was introduced a year ago. Now, I can't imagine doing a posterior composite without one. I have tried many different systems to place Class II composites and each has its strengths and weaknesses. However, none of them has the ease of use and the superior results I get with the V3 system. Thanks for creating such a great product! (By the way, I really like the WAMkey, too.)"

"Sick of digging out leftover meat/food between your recent composite restorations in your patient's mouth due to open contacts, and feeling awful about your restorative work? You gotta try the V3 Ring! It makes creating good contacts so much easier and simple! Not only can you produce your own high quality restorations, but you can also fix up any existing open contacts that your patients already have and they will gladly thank you and appreciate your work."
Dr Anna Lai

"I have been using the V3 since its introduction and love it. I have recommended it to an Israeli dentist who tried both the green and yellow ones I brought for him to try. He has since then purchased his own and loves it as well. My own dentist has incorporated it into his practice as well. Keep up the great innovations."

"We've been using the new V3 Ring for four months now and are amazed at the great interproximal contacts and reduced finishing time. We have used other ring systems but find the V3 to be the most convenient. We received a free V3 at the Western Regional Dental Convention and all three doctors in our office were vying for it. My son-in-law is in dental school at the University of Pittsburg and I'm sending him a V3 Ring set to use also. Thanks for a great product."
Dr Stephen Driggs, DDS

"I have been using the Triodent ring system for about six months. I have used every other ring/matrix system out there. I can say without a doubt that Triodent's V3 system is the easiest and best. The matrix fits well and the contours adapt almost perfectly to the tooth when the wedge and ring are in place. The pre-wedging step allows you to get a great contact every time. And the interproximal contours are outstanding. Thank you for providing such an outstanding product."
Dr Mark M Ortinau, DDS, FAGD, FICD

"After making a beautiful composite restoration, there's nothing more disheartening than pushing your floss through thin air, checking the contact point that isn't there. The V3 Ring from Triodent has changed all that. Good, tight contact points and well-contoured proximal surfaces are guaranteed with this great product. Restore your confidence in large or small interproximal composite restorations with the V3 Ring."

"Thanks for a great product. I was very skeptical initially but I really needed something that would provide good contacts in a speedy, efficient manner and was tired of wasting time finishing. Your product delivered. It's gotten to the point that we can place and finish nicely-contoured, well-adapted restorations nearly as fast as an old-style amalgam. As you know, your product is not the least expensive purchase but in my opinion it is the least expensive by far if you take your time into account. My patients and I both thank you for such a well thought-out system. Keep up the great work."
Dr Paul Comparelli

"Been using the V3 Ring for about a year and must say it is the best by far! The whole system, from the pliers to the wedges and matrices, just make it all the better. I even tried the competition's new-fangled ring and found it too big for most applications. Good going, Triodent!"
Dr Jeffrey Kagihara, DDS

"I called to reorder more rings for my old Triodent system and a Triodent rep told me about the new V3 Rings. I bought one and was instantly hooked. This ring is wonderful! You don't have to worry about it slipping off the forceps or cutting the gingiva. I have told several of my colleagues about it and I have ordered several more rings myself. My contacts are now better than ever."

I can't help but think how much better my composite fillings would have been. It's like half the effort and twice the results. The only improvement I can suggest is to replace the matrix band remover with a hemostat-type instrument."

"I have not done an amalgam in 14 years. It is the ability to get a great contact with the V3 Ring which allows me to enjoy composites. Add this to the contoured sectional matrices and you have a proven combination. Thank you, Triodent."

"The V3 Rings are just great and I use them routinely for all interproximal composites. I adopted them as soon as they arrived and don't use anything else. They seal at the margins more effectively and with better contours than any competing product and when I see companies selling composites using old-fashioned matrices I feel pity."
Dr Tony Ryder

"I wish I had discovered the V3 Ring when I first started doing Class II composites. It is fantastic! Maybe one has to experience multiple times the need for interproximal polishing with a diamond strip to remove overhangs and flash to truly appreciate this great product. My assistants always have polishing strips handy, but with the V3 Ring I rarely need to use them. I also love, really love, the Wave-Wedges. They are gentle to papillae and stay in place well."

"I have been using V3 Rings for many years now and I just cannot operate without it. There's many sectional matrices out there but nothing can be compared to the V3 Ring for its ease of use. I was not able to create a good contact point with the Tofflemire matrix band. With V3 Rings, you can achieve a tight contact every time. I just love it."

"Even using an operating microscope, I know I accidentally touch adjacent teeth with the drill. The new WedgeGuard from Triodent is brilliant.

"I love to take stress out of the equation and the WedgeGuard definitely helps. Whenever there is a perfect, virgin tooth beside a Class II to be prepped I like a WedgeGuard in place. This allows me to work fast, efficiently and do the best by my patients. The unique Wave-Wedge design hugs the teeth nicely and protects the gum as well."

"Without a doubt, the best triple tray that I have used. It lends itself to many different situations; tori, tight posterior occlusion, irregular tooth alignment to name a few. I have also had much less pull of impression material and therefore a much sharper looking impression. Patients seem to be more comfortable with the tray, and I believe I use less impression material. It is my favorite tray, in cases where I can use a triple tray."

"Triotray is a great practice builder and time saver in our office. I love it and my assistant loves it as well! Patients appreciate how the Triotrays are not as bulky in their mouths as our past stock trays and we have shortened our crown prep appointment times, thanks to Triotray. No more bite registrations, and separate opposing impressions. I've tried triple trays in the past and had distortion problems with how flimsy they were. Thought it was an idea of the past until the Triotrays came out and solved all the old triple tray issues. Thanks to Triodent for such a helpful product!"

"There are times when minimal space in the retro-molar pad and/or behind the last upper molar forces me to use a "side-less" double bite tray. I am always concerned about the accuracy of my impressions in these cases from a lack of any support for the impression material. The Triotray solves this problem by allowing me to bend back the tabs at the end of the tray while still providing rigid support for the rest of the impression. A very thoughtful approach to a common problem!"

"I have used Triodent impression trays along with my regular plastic ones and one noticeable difference is that if the patient is uncomfortable with try-in, the plastic trays go to the waste. The Triotrays can always be adjusted without compromising the quality of the impression. Interlocking impression material in the design is a very nice feature. And of, course the tray is the most rigid triple tray I've ever seen."

"I have been a happy client of Triodent for a couple of years using your matrix system and wouldn't use anything else. So when you introduced the Triotray I was both excited and expectant. Based on my satisfaction with my current use of the matrix, I expected no less in another of your products. I have been using my first order of trays and to date have been extremely satisfied with them. The fit of the crowns is excellent and seat times have dropped dramatically. I like that. I had been looking for another tray to use as I was unhappy with the triple tray I was using and had even thought of returning to full-arch impressions to obtain the results I expected. But all early signs point to this being my impression tray - great work!"

Dr Bruce LeBlanc, DDS

I consider the Grip Tab a fantastic innovation, and I can't think of practicing without it!"

"We had only just received the WAMkey and almost immediately had the opportunity to remove a three-unit bridge and I was very surprised to find that by following the instructions on the video it worked almost exactly as it was meant to and was extremely easy removing the bridge. I was able to tidy up the preparation and, as there were no problems around the margin, was successfully able to re-cement the bridge. As far as the patient was concerned, it was brilliant."
Dr Tim Little

"Just this morning I had to deal with a bridge of which the anterior crown had loosened but the posterior ones were irremovable (a shaft had been made in the post-crown). One minute drilling, a little rotation of the WAMkey, a little bit of cleaning, cement and all was done within 10 minutes!"

"I am still amazed by the speed of the operation and by the fact that the patient does not feel anything at all. The more I use WAMkey the less I can do without it."

"WAMkey really disappointed me! I was ready to have fun removing an old bridge but I didn’t have time because the "thing" removed it as if it were a temporary bridge. Boo hoo! The thing jumps the gun. Even the patient noticed: “Was it ready to come out? Good heavens! It was high time to change it."

"In a busy general dental practice, time is often your most valuable resource and greatest cost. The WAMkey is the only tool I have found that can quickly and reliably remove a crown from a tooth without having to resort to sectioning it through the metal coping. I can usually remove an old crown in less than 60 seconds."
