3M Astringent Tissue Retraction Material -Paste is an advanced solution for temporary gingival retraction, meticulously formulated to support precise dental procedures. This paste incorporates 15% Aluminum Chloride, a potent astringent agent, designed to manage tissue and control bleeding effectively.

The material is indicated for marginal gingival retraction of healthy periodontium, facilitating the preparation for both material-based and digital impressions, as well as Class II and Class V fillings. It provides a clean, dry sulcus and robust hemostasis, which is crucial for capturing detailed impression margins.

Designed for efficient application, the 3M Astringent Tissue Retraction Material -Paste can be used with or without retraction cords and is compatible with most composite dispensers. It must be left in the sulcus for a minimum of 2 minutes to achieve optimal retraction results. Following its application, the paste must be completely rinsed off with an air-water spray and suction prior to impression taking, as astringents may inhibit the setting of A-silicones (VPS) and Polyethers.
