The go-to endodontic obturation material for many years, gutta percha points are used to fill canals following shaping and cleaning during root canal treatments. Produced from the coagulated latex of trees native to Malaysia, gutta percha is a natural material that is heated and then compressed into the canal. Gutta percha points are designed in various sizes to fit in different canals, and many companies that produce endodontic files also produce corresponding gutta percha points. When selecting GP points, be sure to have multiple sizes on hand to be ready for any canal you encounter.
