Step 1

PREPACK. To ensure cord retention during preparation, use a cord large enough to firmly compress into sulcus. Open proximal contacts and place Ultrapak knitted cord soaked in hemostatic solution. Because Ultrapak cord compresses upon packing, use a cord size that appears too large. The thin Ultrapak™ Packer packing instrument quickly slips cord into position. The knitted cord's unique design (interlocking loops) facilitates easy packing and locks it into place.
Step 2

PREPARATION. Extend margin subgingivally by cutting partway into knitted cord, which won't entangle in the diamond bur. Remove remnant of cord with calcium hydroxide applicator (tiny ball end). Bleeding is minimal. A small portion of uncut tooth above the gingival attachment is preserved to record in the impression.
Step 3

HEMOSTASIS AND IMPRESSION. Rub the Metal Dento-Infusor™ tip against bleeding tissue as solution is slowly expressed. Rinse with a firm air/water spray to clean and check for complete hemostasis. If bleeding is noted, repeat these steps. If additional retraction is required, repack with appropriate-size cord. Air dry and make impression.
