Aira Retraction Cord, Black, Size #000 is used for creating clear access around very narrow tooth margins before a digital scan or conventional impression. The extra-fine #000 diameter is thinner than Sizes #00 and #0, making it suitable for tight sulci, delicate gingival tissue, and areas where a thicker cord may be difficult to place.

Its black color provides strong visual contrast against teeth and surrounding tissue, helping clinicians monitor placement and confirm complete removal before proceeding. Because the cord is supplied without medication, it can be used dry or with a compatible hemostatic solution when additional moisture or bleeding control is required. Aira Retraction Cord is made from cotton and features a knitted construction that compresses as it is packed around the prepared tooth. Once positioned in the sulcus, the knitted loops expand gently to help create temporary space between the gingival tissue and the preparation margin.

Size #000 provides an extra-fine option for limited sulcus space, minimal tissue displacement, or first-cord placement in a two-cord technique. Each bottle contains 100 inches, or 254 centimeters, of cord that can be cut to the required length for each tooth and procedure. The single-bottle format keeps the remaining material protected, organized, and convenient to store with other restorative supplies. During use, the cord is packed carefully into the sulcus to improve access to the finish line and support clearer capture of the preparation margin.

The knitted cotton construction helps the cord remain intact during handling while absorbing moisture from the working area. This can provide a cleaner field for conventional impressions, digital scans, margin evaluation, and final restorative checks. The extra-fine #000 profile gives the operator precise control in narrow areas without introducing the additional bulk of a larger cord.

Its non-impregnated format allows the clinician to select a compatible hemostatic solution based on the patient, procedure, and established office protocol. The black color also supports visibility throughout packing and removal. Dentists, dental assistants, and restorative teams can use Aira Retraction Cord during crown, bridge, veneer, inlay, onlay, and other indirect restorative procedures. It is particularly useful for thin tissue areas, shallow or narrow sulci, anterior cases, and first-cord placement when a larger second cord will be positioned above it.

Before placement, the clinician should evaluate tissue condition, sulcus width and depth, margin location, and the amount of displacement required. Selecting Size #000 helps avoid unnecessary pressure when only fine tissue control is needed. Clear black color coding also makes this cord easier to identify when several sizes are stored together in the operatory or restorative supply area. Aira Retraction Cord combines an extra-fine Size #000 profile, black color coding, knitted cotton construction, and a non-impregnated format in one practical tissue-management product. Its small diameter supports detailed margin access, while the 100-inch supply allows the team to cut only the length required for each case. The option to use the cord dry or with a separately selected hemostatic solution gives clinicians flexibility across different restorative procedures. Clear size and color identification support efficient chairside setup, inventory control, and restocking. For practices managing very narrow sulci or delicate gingival tissue, this configuration provides a reliable retraction material for consistent conventional impression and digital scanning workflows.
