QwikStrip has not been evaluated by Clinical Consultants of DENTAL ADVISOR. It was chosen as a Clinical Problem Solver by consensus of the Editors.

Problem

Using a handpiece or a disc to perform IPR or to finish interproximal contacts after cementing indirect restorations can cause open contacts, soft tissue damage, nick the teeth being adjusted, or alter the angulation of the teeth.

Solution

The innovative design of QwikStrips provides the right solution to these troubling outcomes. The ergonomics of the handle allows for precise tactile control, the depth limiting design helps eliminate soft tissue injury, while the floss tether holes provide an additional safety feature. QwikStrips are available in single-sided, double-sided, curved, and serrated options. They range in size from .05 mm up to .5 mm, making them ideal for any IPR case by simply following the color-coded sequence guide. QwikStrips are available in a new 10-pack case which is autoclavable, as well as a 90- or 180-piece bulk pack.
