after you get a matrix band around the tooth, make sure the wedge the heck outta it with a nice, fat wedge don't bother with those small/skinny wedges. increased condensation force helps, too.

Use a ball burnisher to burnish a contact into the matrix band. And wedge those teeth apart! It's easier to wedge teeth in the mouth than on a dentoform.

be careful if you are doing a MOD and doing the "wedge and burnish" (which does work really well) for getting that contact. for MO or a DO that works awesome...but when doing the MOD make sure you wedge both sides equally or you might get one really good contact and then the other one sucks or is nonexistant.
