Wp Dental Re-Cord Impregnated Retraction Cord

Wp Dental Re-Cord impregnated retraction cord

The foundation of a successful crown-and-bridge case or aesthetic restoration is obtaining a clear gingival margin. Wp Dental Re-Cord is a professional retraction cord made from 100% pure cotton that delivers high performance thanks to its braided structure.

Key features

• Unique braided structure: Unlike traditional twisted cords, Re-Cord is produced with a special braiding technology. It does not unravel when placed in the sulcus and stays in place
• Maximum absorption capacity: Cotton fibers rapidly absorb hemostatic solutions and deliver them in a controlled way to the application site
• Easy placement: Flexible structure does not catch on hand instruments (retraction packers) and adapts effortlessly into the gingival sulcus
• Different thickness options: Size alternatives suitable for every case type (thin or thick biotype)

Technical details and areas of use

• Impression taking: Digital or conventional impression processes where margins must be clearly recorded
• Cementation: Preventing gingival seepage while seating the restoration
• Cavity preparation: Cleaning caries at the gingival margin and filling applications

Size guide

The product is offered in 5 different thicknesses. Choosing the correct size is critical for both clinician comfort and patient tissue health:

• #000 Black: Very thin gingiva, lower anterior teeth, and as the lower cord in the double-cord technique
• #00 Brown: Ideal for the preparation stage in thin gingival biotypes
• #0 Purple: Provides retraction and hemostasis control in standard cases
• #1 Blue: Used on posterior (molar) teeth and medium-thickness gingiva
