Abstract: A dental contact adjustment tool. The novel dental tool includes a handle and a support structure for coupling a marking apparatus to the handle such that the marking apparatus is at an angle appropriate for delivering a marking medium to an interproximal area of a tooth. In an illustrative embodiment, the support structure includes an angled shaft having a first end coupled to the handle and a second end coupled to a retaining mechanism for holding the marking apparatus at a substantially right angle to the shaft. The marking medium is a transferable medium that will transfer from a tooth to an artificial crown upon contact. In the illustrative embodiment, the marking medium is graphite, and the marking apparatus includes a solid piece of graphite held by a retaining body adapted to interface with the retaining mechanism of the support structure.
