Double-ended retraction cord packer with serrated tips and lightweight hollow handle for gingival displacement
The Waldent Retraction Cord Packer With Hollow Handle (15/818) is a double-ended instrument designed to accurately pack gingival retraction cord into the sulcus during impression making and crown and bridge procedures. Each working end carries a fine serrated edge that grips the retraction cord securely and prevents it from slipping or being pulled back out while it is gently tucked into the gingival crevice. The angled, contoured tips provide clear access to both anterior and posterior teeth from different approach directions, allowing controlled cord placement around the full circumference of the preparation. The hollow handle keeps the instrument exceptionally lightweight for fatigue-free, precise handling during this delicate step. Manufactured from high-grade surgical stainless steel, it offers durability, corrosion resistance, and a non-slip knurled grip. Effective gingival retraction with this packer ensures clean margins and distortion-free impressions.
