Retraction paste

VOCO Retraction Paste – a must-have for every practice

The basis for a perfect impression is an exposed and dry sulcus. With VOCO Retraction Paste, which is applied directly from the cap into the sulcus, VOCO is introducing a product for the effective, temporary opening of the sulcus and its isolation from moisture. This product is also the ideal complement to the V-Posil precision impression material. VOCO Retraction Paste offers the prerequisites for successful classic or digital precision impressions, as well as for cavity preparation of class II or V restorations, but also for either permanent or temporary cementing of restorations.

The retraction paste impresses users not just through its results, but also through its handling: For example, the shade contrasts well against the gingiva, facilitating in particular the work in hard-to-see areas. Thanks to the very slender and slightly flexible cannula, the material can be easily dosed and applied, whereby the paste is easy to press out and subsequently scores points with very good flow viscosity, coupled with uniform stability for opening of the sulcus. During application, the aluminium chloride paste with astringent effect temporarily fills the sulcus, stops any bleeding and eliminates moisture.

Patients themselves also benefit from numerous advantages: For example, VOCO Retraction Paste only requires a short exposure time, it has a neutral taste and can be easily and fully rinsed off.

The paste can be used as an alternative to, or in combination with a retraction thread, for example. It can be used in the classic way or digitally, with an intraoral scanner. Soft tissue management is often the key to success for the resulting class II and V fillings as well as for permanent or temporary cementation of restorations, especially when using the adhesive technique with not very moisture-tolerant products.

Hygienic SingleDose
VOCO Retraction Paste can be applied directly into the sulcus easily and hygienically from the SingleDose Cap, developed in-house by VOCO. The SingleDose Cap is compatible with commercially available composite dispensers such as the VOCO Caps Dispenser, and is sufficient for up to 3 sulci.

Advantages of the SingleDose: each patient receives their very own product, an easy way to avoid the risk of cross-contamination as well as other potential for contamination.
