Guyer Cord Packer Smooth Hollow Handle

Guyer Cord Packer – Smooth Hollow Handle

Description

The Guyer Cord Packer – Smooth Hollow Handle is a specialized dental instrument used for precise and atraumatic placement of gingival retraction cord around a tooth before impressions or restorative procedures. Cord packing instruments like this are essential in prosthetic, crown and bridge, and restorative dentistry to gently displace gingival tissue and open the sulcus, providing a clear, dry working field and improved access to prepared margins. The smooth working end ensures gentle placement without serration, making it suitable for use with delicate or non-braided retraction cords during procedures that require minimal tissue trauma.

This cord packer is crafted from surgical-grade stainless steel with a hollow handle design, which reduces overall weight, improves tactile feedback, and enhances clinician comfort during repeated use. The ergonomic handle also helps reduce hand fatigue during longer procedures.
