V3 Ring
Overall
4.8
Strengths
Predictable contacts - all but one evaluator stated they were able to achieve tight contacts all the time. Plastic tines adapt well to tooth surfaces. Bands are nicely contoured. Most evaluators (71%) really liked the design, while another 15% considered the design to be acceptable. The tabs were favored by 71% of the evaluators. All but one evaluator considered them easy to place, while all the evaluators thought they were easy to remove.
Weaknesses
Sharp corners on plastic tines can tear gloves. Length of tines could be longer in some cases. Although only 14% of the evaluators did not like the overall design of the system, the tabs were considered to be unacceptable by 29%. Rings are expensive.
BOTTOM LINE
If you want virtually automatic contacts, this is it, but the tabs may not thrill you.
