Better Results With or Without Cord

Choose the retraction paste that works for you.

GingiTrac is a silicone based material, automixed in a single-use disposable syringe tip. Kind and gentle to gingival tissue, GingiTrac slips out of the retracted sulcus in one piece, and is ideal for use with or without cord. Controls bleeding and oozing through the astringent action of aluminum sulfate.

Access Edge is a heavy-bodied retraction paste containing the natural drying and hemostatic properties of kaolin clay and the astringent action of aluminum chloride. Single-use syringe tips insure perfect asepsis – just use once and throw away. Ideal for use with or without a cord technique.

Optimized Cord Technique:

(Less time and effort!)

1. Place a single strand of retraction cord into the sulcus.

2. Inject Access Edge or GingiTrac around the prep. (Acts as a second cord.)

3. Wait 2 minutes. (A GingiTrac compression cap may be used to apply pressure.)

4. Remove cord. Rinse if needed.
