A Softer Touch. Greater Control.
The TissuePro Minnesota Retractor Sleeves by Armor Dental transform a traditional metal retractor into a more comfortable, controlled instrument for dental and oral surgical procedures.
Designed to fit securely over a Minnesota retractor, TissuePro provides a soft, non-reflective surface that supports gentle tissue management, reduces slippage, and improves clinical handling. With Intraoral, External, and All-in-One configurations, clinicians can choose the coverage that best suits their procedural needs.
Key Features & Benefits
- Gentler Soft Tissue Retraction: A soft intraoral contact surface cushions tissue against the rigid retractor, helping minimize localized pressure and patient discomfort.
- Improved Grip & Control: External sleeve configurations provide a comfortable, non-slip gripping surface, supporting secure handling and helping reduce operator hand fatigue.
- Reduced Glare: The non-reflective surface helps minimize distracting reflections from surgical lighting during clinical procedures.
- Three Configurations: Choose Intraoral, External, or All-in-One coverage depending on whether tissue cushioning, clinician grip, or both are the priority.
- Secure Minnesota Retractor Fit: Designed to slide over the Minnesota retractor, fit securely during use, and be removed after the procedure.
- Single-Use & Reusable Options: Select from single-patient-use or autoclavable versions. Reusable models are rated for up to 30 autoclave cycles according to manufacturer instructions.
