Proper obturation is critical to the success of endodontic treatments. Whether using machine assisted obturation or hand carrier obturation it is important for the chosen system to fit any root canal, even the narrowest. Benefits of choosing a machine assisted obturation system are fast and continuous flow of filling materials via gun or refillable cartridge, adjustable temperature settings, quick heating elements and variable power settings. Hand carrier endodontic obturation often features a plastic core surrounded by gutta percha and requires a separate heating element for the filling material. Be sure to inquire about which obturation technique and product is best suited for the intended procedure.
