Knitted Retraction Cord, # 000, Black, 1/Pk, 103205

• Ultrapak? cord is used for rapid tissue displacement prior to impression making and can also be used to deliver ferric sulfate solutions subgingivally for sulcular fluid control.
• Ultrapak? is designed to enhance ViscoStat?, Astringedent?, and Dento-Infusor? tissue management techniques.
• Conventional techniques using alum, aluminium chloride, etc. are also enhanced when using Ultrapak plain knitted cords, which carry significantly greater quantities of hemostatic solution than conventional cords.
• Compresses upon packing then expands for optimal retraction

Details Key Specifications Packaging Product Videos Product Catalogue Reviews (0) Ultrapak? is a 100% cotton, gingival retraction cord knitted into thousands of tiny interlocking loops that exert a gentle continuous outward force following placement. This unique knitted design exerts a gentle, continuous outward force following placement, as the knitted loops seek to open.

Optimal tissue displacement occurs in 3?8 minutes. Ultrapak?s proprietary knitted cord design is better than braided or twisted cord for packing into the sulcus, absorbing fluids, and expanding for adequate retraction.

Ultrapak? comes in cords as small as size #000 to as large as size #3, making Ultrapak suitable for any clinical situation. The smaller cords are ideal for pediatric cases where carious lesions have extended beyond the gumline and as the first cord in the double-cord technique.

The larger cords work well as the upper cord in the double-cord technique and for areas that have thick gingival tissues that require a significant amount of force to be retracted.
