In the ‘immediate’ technique (called Immediate because you will manage this straight after the palatal wall build up) you can use some form of an interproximal matrix (posterior sectional matrix used vertically, for example). The tip here is to roll the composite between your gloved fingers first, roll it into a sausage, then you will then place that ‘sausage’ into the interproximal area. This will help you get a better interproximal shape. Inspired by Dr Dipesh Parmar from Mini Smile Makeover course.
