Gingival retraction cord, thin (00), yellow

The gingival retraction cord is made of 100% cotton, knitted into thousands of tiny loops forming long interlocking chains. The unique knitted design exerts a gentle continuous outward force following placement as knitted loops seek to open. Rapid retraction/displacement. Easy to control and place. Will not tangle in burs or packers. It is used in dentistry for gingival displacement and hemostasis before bonding and/or restorative placement procedures. For use to aid in making impressions for fixed prosthetics. 000: for lower anterior; when luting near gingival and subgingival veneers; class III, IV, V restorations; first cord for “two cord” technique.
