Usually a band seater is used for further adaptation after initial placement. Please note how the band seater is placed on the tooth prior to having the patient bite down on the seater. Band seaters come in circular and triangular shapes. CAUTION: If you use the triangular seater, it is important not to place it next to the band in such a way that the patient can inadvertently drive the triangular piece into the cusp of the tooth. This may fracture the cusp.
