Get easy access to the sulcus with 3M™ ESPE™ Retraction Capsule’s patented extra-fine tip. The retraction paste dispenses easily using common composite dispensers and effectively deflects marginal gingiva. This refill includes 25 capsules, and instructions for use.

The 3M™ ESPE™ Retraction Paste is indicated for the temporary tissue retraction of the marginal gingiva to provide a dry sulcus when the periodontium is healthy. With its extra-fine tip, the 3M™ ESPE™ Retraction Capsule delivers a 15% aluminum chloride astringent paste right into the sulcus, pushing the gingival tissue away from the tooth and allowing you to capture a detailed impression of the preparation margin. The retraction paste dispenses easily using common composite dispensers and effectively deflects marginal gingiva.

The orientation ring of the capsule corresponds in size and position to the perio probe, making for precise and easy intraoral handling. The content of one unit-dose capsule is sufficient to treat up to three teeth. The capsules are for single use and must not be used on more than one patient.
