A plastic instrument, such as a cord packer or gingival retraction instrument, is preferred for placement of retraction cord as it is less likely to damage the gingival tissue compared to other instruments like an explorer or curette. Cotton pliers are not suitable for placement of retraction cord as they can fray the cord and can lead to uneven retraction.
