Dental Gingival Cord Retraction Knitted Cotton Professional Gingival Retraction Cord Thread Materials Accessory (#0)

This retraction cord needs to be removed from the bottle then strung thru the opening yourself before using. I had to get a small tool to fish it out of the bottle.It's dark green to provide good contrast against the gumline.

This cord doesn't compress and stay put like the retraction cord that I usually use (Ultradent). While somemight have a problem with epinephrine impregnated cords, it's not an issue for me personally. I just didn'tcare for the properties of this cord and the way it handled. The container has a built-in cord cutter but itwas rather clunky to use and the container itself was bit flimsy. In my experience, braided cords workmuch better than this dense cord.
