"We produced the margin elevation band to facilitate the deep margin elevation technique which is becoming increasingly popular with adhesive dentistry. Properly performed, this technique allows for a conservative indirect restoration to be completed without additional invasive treatments. The use of this band and unique matrix shape allows the band to form a tight seal in deeper cervical areas where other bands would usually be unable to reach."

"I use the eZr system on all zirconia and e.max crowns. This product has been fantastic at polishing zirconia...much better than many other brands!"

"The learning curve on the other rings was that they sometimes would not stay where you put them because their contact points on the tooth surface were small and few. With these grippers, the rings hold steady the first time you seat them into position. Accordingly, MOD's are no more difficult than MO's or DO's. Congratulations on an excellent product!"

"The Garrison system is the best way to get a consistently tight contact virtually every restoration you place."

"The new Marginal Elevation bands from Garrison are a true revelation! Their reduced height and pronounced curve makes close adaptation of the bands to the deep margin easy without having to resort to cutting standard matrix strips. By allowing us to raise the margins of deep restorations without removing the rubber dam they are a must for anyone providing adhesive dentistry!"

"With a review from 25 evaluation team members and used on 218 patients, the Reel Matrix by Garrison Dental Solutions was welcomed with open arms to all the dental assistants who used it."

"Adjusted areas polished with the two eZr grits look like smooth glass when examined using my 4.5x loupes!"

"All I can say about the new products is "Incredible"! The new matrix bands are much easier to place and the longer length enables me to use them effectively to restore wide embrasures. The new Composi-Tight Gold retaining rings are far superior to anything I have ever used and, with the increased tension, provide the tightest contacts we have ever gotten on a consistent, predictable basis. I also love the new tip design of the ring placement forceps. It is a vast improvement over any other I have used, making placement a snap. Once again, Garrison Dental has raised the bar to a new level!"

"The eZr system is the only polishing system that actually polishes zirconia to smooth. Research tells us that zirconia is not over-abrasive to opposing dentition so long as it is polished to smooth. The eZr system is the only one I've tried that does this. With all the other kits, there are still visible bur marks after polishing."

"We as dentists are under the same obligation as all healthcare givers: Do no harm! Using a product that protects the tissue and provides a superior results for our restorative needs, that is what the Garrison 3D Soft-Face ring does for us. The soft silicone provides gentle protection of tissue and at same time allows for the correct adaption to aid in providing the best restorative solution."

"The Composi-Tight 3D XR matrix from Garrison allows for consistently excellent contacts and contours in both primary and permanent dentition. The matrices, ring and wedge are simple to place, resulting in reliable restorations."

"The 3D rings do a beautiful job of preventing flash by pressing the sectional matrix band against the tooth to be restored. With the prior ring generation, there were some teeth whose anatomical shape resulted in pop-off. With the addition of the new 3DXR ring, that almost never happens. It has become my go-to ring, especially for more challenging situations."
