Abstract: A dental clamp clamps a tooth and supporting a flexible sheet around a tooth during a dental operation. The dental clamp includes oppositely disposed jaws, each having a wing and a groove extending from an interior of the jaw to an outside edge of the wing; and a resilient bridge connecting oppositely disposed jaws and biasing the jaws toward each other. The clamp may include a curvaceous terminal at one end of each groove to facilitate the placement of the sheet around the tooth.
