Variety

We have your cord. The world’s largest selection of retraction cords are found right here. 37 varieties, Knitted, Braided or Twisted. Five sizes. Non-impregnated, or impregnated with Aluminum Sulfate, Epinephrine or if you want the best of both worlds try our combination cords of Astringent & Reduced Epinephrine.

NTS™ Technology

Pascal impregnated retraction cords are enhanced through our proprietary NTS™ application process. With NTS™ technology, each cord achieves the industry’s most consistent medicated delivery. NTS™ Technology ensures that every millimeter releases the same therapeutic dose—because consistent medication means consistent results.

History

Over 65 years ago, we introduced the first impregnated retraction cords, and we have continued to innovate ever since. We have the experience, the knowledge and with 37 varieties, Pascal can meet your retraction cord needs.

Initial Pack 000

A must‑have for the more than 85% of dentists who successfully use the double‑cord technique. Designed to minimize tissue trauma and reduce the risk of sensitivity, the non‑medicated cord serves as the “Initial Pack” in the double‑cord method. Because the initial cord remains in the sulcus throughout the procedure, using a non‑impregnated option ensures optimal comfort and predictable results.

Cord Comparison Chart
  • Initial Pack 000 (07-100). The ideal “initial” first cord. A “must have” cord for the over 85% of dentists who use the "Double Cord" technique.

    Ultra-Thin, Easy to locate black, Braided, Non-impregnated retraction cord.

    Initial Pack 000 is ideal for creating depth and tissue deflection.

    Initial Pack 000 can be safely left in the sulcus as long as clinician desires without chemical damage to the tissue or causing sensitivity.


  • Knittrax® non-impregnated, 100% pure cotton knitted cord has thousands of tiny interlocking "knitted" loops that enable it to transport and deliver more hemostatic liquid or gel into the sulcus as compared to braided or twisted cords.


    Knittrax retraction cord compresses, expands, and conforms to the sulcus during placement, resulting in increased tissue deflection. Unique knitted design will not snag on burs.
