Frequently asked questions
1. What instruments are needed for composite and amalgam fillings?
Composite and amalgam fillings need a spoon excavator to remove caries, a plastic filling or composite instrument to place material, a condenser to pack it, and a carver and burnisher to shape and smooth. Amalgam also needs a carrier and well, while a matrix retainer rebuilds proximal walls.
2. What is the difference between a condenser and a carver?
A condenser and a carver are used at different stages of a filling. A condenser (plugger) has a flat or ball tip to pack and adapt restorative material into the cavity, while a carver has a sharp blade to remove excess and cut the occlusal anatomy back into the set restoration.
3. Are Waldent restorative instruments genuine and non-stick?
Yes. Waldent restorative instruments are supplied genuine through waldent.com and authorised dealers, made from surgical stainless steel with titanium-nitride-coated composite instruments that resist sticking, and are fully autoclavable at 135°C. Bulk and college-tender pricing is available for high-volume procurement.
