Transparent C-Shape Retractor for Dentistry and Dental Photography

This transparent C-shape retractor is a self-retaining cheek retractor for general dentistry and dental photography. Made from medical-grade polypropylene (PP) for greater flexibility and patient comfort. Extended handles allow the cheek to be pulled back, providing maximum buccal exposure for clinical procedures and intraoral imaging.

Self-Retaining C-Shape Retractor

The self-retaining design stays in place without manual holding, freeing both hands for clinical work or camera operation. Extended tabs provide easy insertion and allow pulling the cheek anteriorly while bonding the side segment. Adjustable tension using elastomers ensures maximum patient comfort while keeping upper and lower lips away from the dry field during bonding.

Clinical Applications

• Full view of anterior and posterior segments during direct bonding
• Better access for clinical procedures and dental photography
