Astringent paste for an effective temporary widening and dry gingival sulcus

Perfect impressions, moisture control and gentle soft tissue management are essential for exact crown margins, perfect marginal adaption, long-lasting and aesthetic restorations.

Indispensable in the practice!

The VOCO Retraction Paste is your indispensable helper for the effective temporary widening and dry gingival sulcus. This creates the condition for successful conventional or digital impressions.

VOCO Retraction Paste can be easily and hygienically applied into the sulcus directly from the SingleDose Cap, an innovation from the VOCO engineers, and is sufficient for up to 3 sulci. Thanks to a soft and flexible plastic cap, the application occures more tissue-conserving and thus more comfortable for the patients in comparison to an application with metal cannulas or placing retraction cords. The viscosity of the paste has been developed according to the clinical treatment requirement. Depending on how much pressure is applied to the paste, it has different viscosity levels, the socalled Viscosity Change. The paste can be easily expressed, flows properly and can be applied precisely with low pressure. The paste is stable in the sulcus – this leads to an effective temporary widening.

The astringent reacting, aluminium chloride containing paste stops any bleeding and displaces moisture. After a short application time of 1 - 2 minutes, the high-contrast VOCO Retraction Paste can be sprayed off easily. The paste can be used as an alternative or in combination with e. g. retraction cords. It is up to you whether you take a classic impression with impression material or a digital Impression with an intraoral scanner.
