A dental wedge is a small device used in dental procedures to separate two adjacent teeth slightly, typically during the placement of filling material or to support other devices. This separation helps dentists access and work on the targeted area more effectively. The device can also include a shield to protect healthy teeth from potential damage by dental instruments.
