The proximal curvature differs from tooth to tooth. In order to achieve a perfect filling the matrix has been designed so that the curvature of the matrix escalates linearly along its total length. On one end the curvature is subtle which is ideal for lower jaw incisors. On the other end the matrix curvature is distinct thus suitable i.e. a diastema closure. By pushing/pulling the matrix it is easy to find a suitable position for every tooth. The matrix has a cervical edge which inserts into the soft tissue pocket. The cervical edge prevents moisture from the surrounding tissue that interfers with the cavity and stabilizes the matrix during insertion of filling material. Indications for use: Class IV, Large Class III, Closure of diastema.

Expert Findings
- The distinct curvature supports diastema closure and adjustable positioning.
- The subtle curvature is designed for mandibular incisors.
- The cervical edge forms an artificial CEJ, supports papilla form, and helps block tissue moisture.
- A progressive 3D contour allows one matrix to serve anterior restorations.

Directa ProxyPal® - The pre-shaped progressive curvature aids to create incisial fillings with a correct anatomical shape
ProxyPal from Directa is a pre-shaped matrix with a progressive curvature that helps in the creating the correct anatomical shape for incisal fillings. The curvature of the matrix escalates linearly along its total length. On one end the curvature is minimal, which is best for lower incisors. On the other end, the curvature is sharper for treatments such as a diastema closure. ProxyPal is indicated for Class IV and large Class III restorations as well as diastema closure.
