Endodontic Root Canal Plugger #5/7 Firm-Grip Hollow Handle

The Endodontic Root Canal Plugger #5/7 is used in endodontic procedures, particularly during the process of root canal treatment.  The Endodontic Root Canal Plugger #5/7 is a specialized instrument essential for the successful completion of root canal treatments by facilitating the precise placement and compaction of filling materials within the root canal space.

• • Condensation: The primary function of the plugger is to condense gutta-percha or other filling materials into the root canal space. This condensation helps to fill the canal thoroughly and compactly, ensuring a tight seal and preventing recontamination.
  • Placement: The flat working end of the plugger facilitates the precise placement of filling materials within the root canal. This is crucial for achieving an effective seal and supporting the overall success of the root canal treatment.
  • Compaction: By applying controlled pressure, the plugger compacts the filling material, removing any voids or air pockets within the canal. This compaction contributes to the stability and longevity of the restoration.
  • Compatibility: The plugger is designed to be compatible with other endodontic instruments and materials commonly used in root canal therapy, such as files, reamers, and sealers.
