Overview
This part of ISO 16635 specifies requirements and test methods for hole punches for dental rubber dam. In order to facilitate the use of dental rubber dam, standardization of the required instruments and materials is necessary. In dental practice hole punches do not come into direct contact with the patient, provided they are used as intended. The International Standard has been prepared by ISO/TC 106/SC 4/WG 8 "Dental hand instruments" (secretariat: ANSI), together with CEN/TC 55 "Dentistry" (secretariat: DIN). The responsible committee at DIN is Working Committee NA 014-00-23 AA "Dentalmedizinische Instrumente" ("Dental medical instruments") of NADENT.
