Dentists Worldwide

Embrace Traxodent

Dentists are excited about new Traxodent, Hemodent Paste Retraction System.  At recent major dental shows in Hawaii, New York and the United Kingdom, many dentists were introduced to Traxodent and how it can be utilized to achieve easy and effective hemostasis in minutes.

Traxodent is especially helpful to impression making or scanning a tooth for digital readings prior to fabricating crowns and bridges.  Many dentists are also using Traxodent for isolation in veneer procedures or when bonding restorations close to the gingiva.  Traxodent's versatility lends itself to many technique variations.  It can be used with or without cords, so many dentists use it as a "second cord" in the double-cord technique.

                        Place Traxodent                                  Rinse after 2 minutes

Clinicians everywhere appreciate the many benefits Traxodent offers:

• The sleek syringe with bendable tip permits easy application.
• After 2 minutes, Traxodent is rinsed, leaving a clean, accessible margin.
• The soft paste produces gentle pressure on the sulcus while it absorbs excess crevicular fluid.
• Aluminum chloride in the paste creates an astringent effect without irritating or discoloring surrounding tissue.
• Versatile-use with or without retraction cord or with Premier® retraction caps.

"Best Pearls of 2009"

Dr Joe Blaes, Editor of Dental Economics, recently featured Traxodent in the "Best Pearls of 2009".  Traxodent is especially appreciated as... "a retraction and hemostatic system (with 15% aluminum chloride) for use prior to impression taking, cementation, bonding procedures or wherever tissue control is needed."  Traxodent's slim syringe with a bendable tip makes it convenient, accessible and ready for immediate use.  Dr Blaes prefers the technique with Premier Retraction Caps.  "After placement in the sulcus, apply a Premier Retraction Cap, leave for two minutes and rinse.  You will get detailed impressions".(1)
