Root Canal Filling Systems: Warm Vertical Condensation
Root canal filling systems represents the culmination and of a series of procedural steps. All dentists show a lot of interest when endodontic post-treatment radiographs exhibit puffs, filled accessory canals or shown a particular anatomy, like a isthmus or an accessory canal; cleaned but not shaped. The vertical compaction technique of warm gutta-percha, conceived and described by Schilder […]

During this phase, we need: gutta-percha cones, a dedicated caliper and a blade or micro-scissors.
