Product Overview
Dental vertical pluggers are crucial hand - held instruments in root canal treatment. They are used in the thermoplastic gutta - percha filling technique to assist in accurately pressing heated and softened gutta - percha into root canals, achieving three - dimensional filling, ensuring a tight root canal seal, and promoting the prognosis of the affected tooth.
Hand Pluggers Featuring both a tapered nickel-titanium end and a stainless steel end, Hand Pluggers can be used in any common obturation technique, including warm and cold condensation. The pluggers are also ideal for backfilling canals. Use the NiTi end for finishing off condensation procedures in even the most radically curved canals. Either end may condense and control the movement of gutta percha under pressure. In addition, the Hand Pluggers are fabricated of the highest grade materials for excellent durability and sterilization.
Extra small (White) 0.09mm Titanium / 0.68mm SS
The angle and thickness of the working end are suitable for most molar root canals. During the filling of the middle segment of root canals and routine filling of posterior tooth root canals, it assists in shaping the gutta - percha. Especially for areas with low root canal curvature, it can apply stable pressure to avoid gutta - percha displacement.
Small (Yellow)0.25mm Titanium / 0.75mm SS
The tip is fine and suitable for relatively narrow root canals (such as anterior tooth root canals). It is flexible in the upper - middle segment of the root canal, facilitating the control of the amount of gutta - percha pressure applied. It is used for precise filling of areas with regular root canal morphology and narrow spaces, ensuring that the gutta - percha fits closely to the root canal wall.
Medium (Red)0.4mm Titanium / 0.8mm SS
Suitable for the lower segment of root canals, narrow areas, and curved root canals. With a special angle and tip design, it can reach deep into complex parts of the root canal (such as the apical constriction). It accurately presses the gutta - percha, compensating for filling difficulties caused by root canal curvature and improving the apical sealing effect.
Large (Blue)0.7mm Titanium / 1.3mm SS
Focuses on pressurizing large - area and wide root canals, such as wide root canals of posterior teeth or in root canal retreatment scenarios. It can efficiently compact the gutta - percha, cover the wide space of the root canal, and cooperate with other instruments to achieve full - length dense filling of the root canal.
Core Roles
Root canal filling shaping: Cooperate with the thermoplastic gutta - percha filling system to press the softened gutta - percha towards the root canal wall and apex, making the gutta - percha fit closely to the root canal morphology and eliminating filling gaps.
Apical seal reinforcement: Precisely pressurize the gutta - percha in the apical area to form a tight apical seal, preventing bacteria and exudates from moving between the root canal and the periapical tissue and promoting inflammation healing.
Improving filling quality: By having different models adapt to root canal differences, solve the filling difficulties caused by complex root canal anatomy (curvature, narrowness, irregularity), achieve three - dimensional root canal sealing, and reduce the risk of postoperative complications.
Usage Points
It needs to cooperate with the thermoplastic gutta - percha filling process. Select the corresponding model according to the root canal diameter, curvature, and length; operate in accordance with the root canal anatomical direction, and apply force gently to prevent lateral perforation; after use, strictly clean and sterilize to avoid cross - infection. It is an essential tool for standardized and precise root canal filling in root canal treatment.
