Description:
3M ESPE Retraction Capsule is an astringent retraction paste supplied in a single-use capsule. The capsule is compatible with common composite dispensers. The extra-fine, soft-edge tip has an orientation ring that corresponds in size and position to a periodontal probe. The retraction paste contains 15% aluminum chloride and can be used alone or in conjunction with retraction cord for all indications requiring temporary deflection of marginal gingival. Its use requires a clean and dry sulcus area (e.g., when taking impressions, cementing temporary and permanent restorations, and when preparing Class II and Class V restorations). 3M ESPE Retraction Capsule contains 7.5 g of paste. Each capsule is individually sealed in a foil blister pouch, and should remain in the blister until ready for immediate use. The product is sold in a refill pack of 25 capsules or a value pack of 100 capsules. The 3M ESPE Retraction Capsule was evaluated by 30 consultants in 612 uses. This retraction paste received a 91% clinical rating.
