“I find that using the Astringent Retraction Paste from 3M Oral Care creates a great environment for scanning and impression taking.”

Dr Andrew Sharpe from Dental Smiles Takeley shares his experience of using the product in everyday practice.

“Easy to use and apply, it opens the sulcus space effectively and it is very gentle for maximum patient comfort. It also enables a quick and long-lasting haemostasis without soft tissue trauma and very rarely causes any bleeding upon removal.

“The Astringent Retraction Paste also allows for a simple workflow, requiring fewer steps than retraction cord. This is a fantastic product – I always keep it in stock and certainly recommend it to other clinicians.”
