A rubber dam clamp is a dental tool designed to secure a rubber dam sheet in place around a tooth during procedures like fillings or root canals. Its buccal and lingual wings grip the tooth while the beveled jaws and bow provide stability, isolating the treatment area from saliva and debris.
These clamps are reusable, typically made of spring metal, and come in various sizes and shapes to fit different tooth types. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as dental instruments subject to manufacturing and safety standards for medical devices.
