Retrax pellets allow the practitioner to focus on procedures rather than controlling fluid. 100% cotton pellets infused with Epinephrine or Aluminum Sulfate.

Retrax® Pellets

 

Ultimate Control

Put the experience of uncontrollable fluids behind you. Retrax® pellets deliver immediate and profound hemostasis in multiple situations. Normal tissue moisture will activate pellets. For faster activation, dip in water prior to application. 

Seamless Method- Place one pellet on each side using the tweezer mechanism of the PickPack™. To insert pellets, seamlessly connect the Pick-Pack tweezer heads with a "click" and "push" the pellets subgingivally. 

The Two Instrument Method- Use Pascal’s Retrax™ Tweezer to place pellets, one on each side interproximally. To "push" the pellets subgingivally, use any Pascal cord packer.

Non Staining

Unlike ferric sulfate products, Pascal Retrax® Pellets will not stain composite or Zirconia crowns. Will not contaminate adhesive and bioregenerative procedures.

Patient Friendly

As opposed to bad tasting, tissue-blackening, runny, solutions or ferric sulfate syrups, Retrax® Pellets are tasteless and won't drip or dilute, ensuring maximum hemostatic effect where you need it. Patient-friendly, won't run over the tongue or down the patients throat.
