RetractGet the convenience of "cord-less" retraction while making your patients more comfortable. The extra-fine tip of the 3M™ Astringent Retraction Paste delivers hemostatic paste where it belongs—right into the sulcus—to gently retract tissue and control bleeding.

Syringe & MixWorking time is more efficient with tools to help you syringe and mix impression materials. 3M™ Intra-oral syringes let you apply wash material exactly where it's needed to capture every marginal detail for restorations that drop into place. Our stationary 3M™ Pentamix™ 3 and portable 3M™ Pentamix™ Lite automatic mixing units dispense quickly and reduce material inconsistencies and voids.
