Answer:

petroleum jelly

Step-by-step explanation:

Vaseline is recommended to lubricate the inner surfaces of rubber dam to improve sliding the sheet over the contours of the teeth to overcome the contact areas more easily, and close tightly around the cervix of the tooth. The vaseline is ideal for preparing the buccal area, isolating matrices and protecting tissues
