Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Gingival is the important part in the preparation of standard dental body and accurate impression, which has great significance in the repairing of diseased teeth.
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the application effect of braided retraction cord in dentistry.
METHODS: The patients who received braided retraction cord for repairing of dental defects were followed-up, and the effect of retraction cord on dentistry through assessing the satisfaction of dentistry and the related complications of gingival bleeding, gingivitis and periodontitis. The effect of retraction cord with different structural characteristics in dentistry was compared.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: The braided retraction cord for the repairing of 367 anterior and 64 posterior dental defects could reduce the incidence of periodontal complications of gum discoloration, gingival bleeding, gingivitis and periodontitis. Domestic retraction cord as it contains alum has a good hemostatic function and can obtain satisfactory restoration effect. The import retraction cord has the same hemostatic function and can obtain satisfactory restoration effect due to its mesh weave structure. There is no significant difference of satisfaction rate during the dental repairing.
