The fine #0 diameter is suited to tight sulci, thin gingival tissue, and areas where a larger cord may be difficult to place comfortably.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIts purple color provides clear visual identification during placement and removal, helping the clinical team distinguish this size from other retraction cords stored chairside. Because the cord is supplied without medication, clinicians can use it dry or apply a compatible hemostatic solution when additional moisture or bleeding control is required.\n\nAira Retraction Cord is made from 100% cotton and features a knitted construction that compresses during placement. Once positioned in the sulcus, the knitted loops expand gently to help create space around the prepared tooth and improve access to the finish line.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSize #0 provides a fine option for delicate tissue management, first-cord placement in a two-cord technique, or procedures involving limited sulcus space. Each container holds 100 inches, or 254 centimeters, of cord that can be cut to the required length for each case. The single-container format keeps the material protected, organized, and convenient to store with other restorative supplies.\n\nThe knitted design helps the cord remain intact during handling while allowing it to absorb moisture and carry a selected hemostatic solution when one is applied.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring use, the cord is packed carefully around the prepared tooth to move the gingiva away from the margin and improve visibility of the working area. This tissue displacement can support clearer access for conventional impressions, digital scans, margin evaluation, and final restorative checks. The fine profile gives the operator added control in narrow areas without introducing unnecessary bulk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe non-impregnated format also allows the clinician to select a solution that aligns with the patient, procedure, and established office protocol.\n\nDentists, dental assistants, and restorative teams can use Aira Retraction Cord during crown, bridge, veneer, inlay, onlay, and other indirect restorative procedures. It is especially useful when the preparation margin is positioned close to or slightly below the gingival line and requires improved exposure before impression taking or digital scanning. The purple color supports quick size recognition, while the small diameter helps teams match the cord to tight, shallow, or delicate sulci.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBefore placement, the clinician should evaluate tissue condition, sulcus depth, preparation location, and whether a single-cord or two-cord technique is planned. Selecting the appropriate cord size supports controlled placement, clearer access, and a more organized restorative workflow.\n\nAira Retraction Cord combines soft cotton construction, a knitted design, purple color coding, and a fine Size #0 profile in one practical tissue-management product. Its non-impregnated format supports flexible use without limiting the clinician to a preselected medication. The 100-inch spool can be cut to the required length, helping teams prepare only the amount needed for each procedure. Clear color and size identification also support efficient chairside setup, inventory control, and restocking when multiple cord options are stored together. For practices managing delicate sulci or narrow tissue spaces, this configuration provides a reliable retraction material for consistent impression and digital scanning workflows.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"House Brand","offers":[{"title":"0","offer_id":51368564326721,"sku":"HSB-103200","price":11.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0932\/2525\/5233\/files\/174189_main.webp?v=1770265494","url":"https:\/\/carolinadental.com\/products\/hsb-retraction-cord-0","provider":"Carolina Dental Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
