• Rapid retraction/displacement.
• Doesn’t tangle in burs or packers.
• When using i-PAK plain knitted cords, since they carry significantly greater quantities of hemostatic solution than conventional cords.
• Provides rapid tissue displacement and detailed margins for quality impressions.
• Facilitates easy packing and stays in place better than any twisted or braided cord.
• Compresses upon packing then expands for optimal retraction.
