SuperTract, Retraction Paste with Astringent Agent, 0.5g Capsule, PK/20

Clinical Overview

SuperTract by East Dent is a single‑patient, unit‑dose gingival retraction paste capsule delivering 0.5 g of Aluminum Chloride and Kaolin-based astringent. Designed for atraumatic soft-tissue displacement, sulcus drying, and hemostasis during impression-taking, cementation, and restorative preparation.

Key Benefits

• Astringent hemostasis: Aluminum chloride effectively controls bleeding and moisture.
• Stable viscosity: Kaolin thixotropic gel maintains position in the sulcus for controlled retraction.
• Atraumatic delivery: Rounded capsule tip minimizes tissue damage and ensures precise placement.
• Time-efficient: Requires only 2 minutes to achieve gingival displacement and drying.
• Single‑use capsule: Hygienic, prevents cross‑contamination and ensures dosage accuracy.
• Multi‑tooth treatment: One 0.5 g capsule can retract up to five adjacent teeth in a single patient.

Kit Contents

• 20 × 0.5 g single‑use SuperTract capsules

Working & Setting Times

• Application: Extrude slowly into the sulcus until slightly overfilled.
