Interproximal dental gauge, reusable

31 devices · GMDN 44740

An interproximal dental gauge is a reusable tool used in orthodontics to measure the space between adjacent teeth. Clinicians rely on it during treatments like reproximation to assess and adjust gaps, ensuring proper alignment and reducing pressure points between teeth.

These gauges are typically made of stainless steel and come in graduated sizes, often marked with notches for easy identification. Regulation varies by jurisdiction, but they are generally classified as dental instruments and must meet safety and performance standards for reuse in clinical settings.
