Additional Information for Dental Gingival Retraction Paste
Dental Gingival Retraction Paste is a type of material used in dentistry to temporarily push back or retract the gum tissue surrounding a tooth. It is commonly used during dental procedures such as crown or bridge preparations, where the dentist needs better access to the tooth structure.
The paste is typically applied to the gingival (gum) tissue using a syringe or an applicator. It contains a combination of chemicals that cause the gum tissue to shrink or retract, exposing more of the tooth surface. This allows the dentist to create an accurate impression or perform the necessary dental work.
Dental Gingival Retraction Paste is part of the supply class Dental Instruments, Equipment, And Supplies, which includes various tools and materials used in dental procedures. It falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, And Veterinary Equipment And Supplies, which encompasses a wide range of products used in medical, dental, and veterinary practices.
It is important to note that the use of Dental Gingival Retraction Paste should be performed by a trained dental professional, as improper application or use can lead to complications or damage to the gum tissue.
