- A thermal obturator with a gutta-percha carrier designed for the permanent 3D filling of root canal systems, an ISO Size #45, which is color-coded White for easy identification during procedures
Uses
- Complete Canal Filling:
- Used to seal the entire root canal, including complex anatomy such as lateral canals and apical deltas, ensuring a hermetic seal
- Universal Compatibility:
- Can be used in any canal shaped with constant or variable tapered file systems ranging from .04 to .10 tapers
Features
- Vulcanized Gutta-Percha Carrier:
- Unlike traditional plastic-core obturators, the GOB series uses a cross-linked gutta-percha core that provides structural rigidity for insertion while remaining fully biocompatible
- Alpha-Phase Gutta-Percha Coating:
- Features a heated alpha-phase coating that flows easily into microtubules upon heating in a compatible obturator oven
- Size #45 Verifier:
- Each pack includes a dedicated verifier to ensure a precise apical fit before final obturation
- Calibration Rings:
- The carrier includes integrated markings to help clinicians accurately set and maintain the proper working length during placement
Benefits
- Easy Post Space Preparation:
- Because the core is made of vulcanized gutta-percha rather than rigid plastic, clinicians can easily drill through it if a post space is needed
- Simpler Retreatment:
- The gutta-percha carrier is easier to remove than plastic versions if endodontic retreatment becomes necessary
- High Radiopacity:
- Ensures the filling is clearly visible on dental radiographs for accurate post-operative verification
- Precise Placement:
- The coating is designed for improved placement accuracy and easier cleanup compared to traditional filling methods
