Dental wedges are generally made of wood, plastic, and rubber and are primarily used in dental treatments to fill the gaps between teeth and prevent material from spilling out during treatment. During dental recovery, dental wedges help to form new contact points and maintain a normal bite position. dental wedges also stabilize the tooth structure by preventing shifting of the position during dental treatment.
In clinical dentistry, dental wedges serve dual therapeutic functions. During dental restoration procedures, they facilitate matrix band adaptation to ensure complete proximal contact and prevent material overhang in composite resin placements. The wedging mechanism creates adequate interproximal separation for precise anatomical reproduction while controlling gingival margin morphology.
Orthodontically, the dental wedges are employed as adjunctive tools for controlled tooth movement. By applying calibrated interradicular pressure, clinicians can achieve micron-level spatial adjustments during alignment phases or stabilize achieved repositioning during retention protocols.

Dental Wedges Tips
Dental Wedges: The “Little Helper” in Dental Restoration
The dental wedges are precision instruments used to isolate teeth and protect gums in oral treatment. It is generally a small piece of wood or plastic, although inconspicuous, but fillings, veneers and other operations in the indispensable auxiliary tools, can help the doctor more accurately restore dental function and aesthetics.
A. The role of dental wedges
- Isolation of teeth neighboring surfaces
When filling or repairing adjacent caries, the gap wedge is inserted into the tooth gap, Spacing the gums and securing the matrix bands to avoid the restorative material sticking to the neighboring teeth or gums. - Protection of periodontal tissuesBy slightly squeezing the gums, it reduces the damage to the soft tissues caused by instrumentation and reduces the risk of postoperative gum bleeding.
- Aids in shaping
Ensure that the restorative material closely fits the neighboring teeth, avoiding overhangs.
B. Choice of materials: adapting to different treatment needs
Plastic wedges: Thin and flexible, suitable for narrower gaps, less pressure on the gums during insertion, commonly used in anterior restorations.
Wooden wedges: Made of birch, moderate hardness, commonly used in posterior restorations or scenarios that require greater support.
C. Precautions for use
Match the shape of the gap between teeth
If the wedge is too big, it will lead to excessive pressure on the gums, and if it is too small, it will not be able to fix the molding piece, so it needs to be selected according to the three-dimensional shape of the tooth gap.
Avoid violent operation
Insertion slowly to prevent the wedge from breaking or damaging the gums.
Use with caution in special patients
Severe gingival recession or wide gaps need to be used in conjunction with other instruments.
