Gentle Retraction. Greater Control.
The Comfort Soft Dental Tissue Retractor by Armor Dental offers a gentler alternative to traditional rigid metal and plastic retractors. Designed for controlled soft tissue retraction, its soft, bendable construction helps clinicians maintain visibility and access while prioritizing patient comfort.
From routine examinations and restorative procedures to oral surgery and post-treatment care, Comfort Soft adapts to a variety of clinical applications. Its ergonomic design supports precise handling, while select versions can accompany patients home to improve access and visibility during daily brushing and oral hygiene.
Key Features & Benefits
- Gentle Soft Tissue Retraction: A wide, soft retraction head provides a more comfortable contact surface against cheeks, lips, and surrounding tissues compared with rigid metal instruments.
- Bendable for Custom Positioning: The adjustable design allows clinicians to modify the retraction angle for improved access and visibility in different areas of the mouth.
- Improved Clinical Visibility: Retracts soft tissues away from the working area to support a clearer view during examinations, hygiene treatments, and surgical procedures.
- Non-Reflective Surface: The matte surface helps reduce distracting reflections from operatory lighting.
- Comfort Across Patient Needs: Available in Small and Large sizes, with a soft design suitable for patients who may find conventional rigid retraction uncomfortable.
- From Chairside to Home: Single-patient multi-use versions can be provided to patients or caregivers for improved access and visibility while brushing between appointments.
- Flexible Practice Options: Choose from autoclavable instruments for repeated clinical use or single-patient multi-use versions for individual patient care.

Supporting Better Oral Hygiene at Home

This makes Comfort Soft a practical addition to patient education and individualized home-care recommendations, especially when patients need assistance maintaining oral hygiene between visits.
