Koecker : Red hot wire cauterize pulp
Gold to fill the canal
Various materials used :
Bamboo, waxes, asbestos, POP, cotton,
ivory, wood , rubber .
Metals , zinc , amalgam.
1847--- Hill’s Stopping.- Gutta Percha:
1867--- BOWNMAN first root canal filling using gutta-percha in extracted tooth.
1847: ASA HILL introduced Gutta Percha in the
form of “Hill’s Stopping”
Bleached gutta percha+ carbonate of lime & quartz
1883: PERRY –used gold wire wrapped with GP
RICHMOND used orange wood coated with gutta-percha
1887: SS White company first began to manufacture GP
1914: CALLAHAN: Used various metals for Obturation ……..
Silver was the most common.
1977 : Thermoplasticized Injectable Gutta-percha Obturation was introduced
In 1978, JOHNSON described a unique yet simple method of canal ,
obturation with Thermoplasticized alpha-phase
gutta-percha carried into the canal on an endodontic file.
A Totally new concept of heat softening and compacting gutta-percha was introduced
by MCSPADDEN in 1979.
GUTTA-PERCHA has been known to dentistry for over 100 years, and is by far the
most universally used solid-core root canal filling material.
Objectives of obturation
Total debridement, try to get a fluid tight seal
by total obliteration of canal space
• Stops coronal leakage
• Entombs surviving bacteria
• Stops influx of periapical tissues and release of bacterial elements .
The commonly used term “hermetic seal” is not accurate.
“Hermetic” is defined as “airtight by fusion or sealing.” Air is not
the problem at the periapex—fluid is the problem. “Impermeable”
is a more accurate term.
Fluid Impervious, Fluid Tight , Bacteria Tight Seal – appropriate to use .

• RESILON FIBERFILL
RESILON
Resilon is a polymer based thermoplastic resin containing
bioactive glass, bismuth oxychloride, barium sulphate and
additional radiopaque fillers
Resilon is a industrial polyurethane
Adapted for dental use .
The polymer has an improved flexural strength and, when used in conjunction
with a resin-based sealer, offers improved bonding potential compared with gutta-
percha.
Resilon is non mutagenic, non toxic , and biocompatible.
Sizes: ISO #15 - # 40,Cone tapers: S1, S2, S3.
Resilon is the central component of the Epiphany™ Soft Resin Endodontic
Obturation System (Pentron Clinical Technologies, LLC), and RealSeal™
(SybronEndo).
These systems include three primary components:
 Resilon core material
 Resin sealer
 Primer
Primer.
The primer—a self-etch primer that contains
 Sulfonic acid-terminated functional
monomer,
 2- hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA),
 water
 Polymerization initiator.
HEMA enhances the bonding of resin to
dentin.
Sealer in an auto mixing barrel
syringe.
The Resin Sealer—a dual-curing, resin-based composite sealer.
The resin matrix is composed of
bisphenol-A-glycidyldimethacrylate (BisGMA)
ethoxylated BisGMA,
urethanedimethacrylate (UDMA) and
hydrophilic difunctional methacrylates.
It contains fillers of
calcium hydroxide, barium sulfate, barium glass, and silica
total filler content is approximately 70% by weight.
Obtura Gun.Resilon points Resilon Pellet
The Resilon core material a thermoplastic synthetic polymer-based root canal
core material :
bioactive glass, bismuth oxychloride and barium sulfate.
The filler content is approximately 65% by weight.
Mono-Block Concept.
Because Resilon is a synthetic polymer, the resin sealer attaches to it, as
well as to the bonding agent/primer used to penetrate into the dentin
tubules.
As a result, a ‘monoblock’ is formed, consisting of filling material resin
sealer-bonding agent/primer-dentin.
Sealer used for resilon is called ‘Epiphany’ or ‘Real seal’
Technique :
Resilon can be softened with heat or dissolved with solvents such as chloroform
for retreatment purposes.
It is available as master cones and accessory cones in different sizes, and as
Resilon pellets.
Flushing the root canals :
with 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA)
and/or 2% chlorhexidine removes this smear layer and
residual sodium hypochlorite
Advantages :
• Very less microleakage due to ‘Monobloc’ and also ‘Double Seal’
• Resilon is a bonded resin system, it has the potential to
strengthen the root.
• Resilon is highly radiopaque and handles well with both cold and
heated root canal filling techniques.
• Healing in a short period of time.
RealSeal is applied in the same way as gutta percha.
Use the obturation technique of your choice, adding only a
priming step before filling.
Has excellent handling, working time and flow characteristics.
RealSeal flows easily into the accessible lateral anatomy of the
root canal system.
RealSeal
EndoREZ
EndoREZ Points are unique, resin-coated gutta percha cones.
The resin coating bonds with EndoREZ during obturation resulting in
more complete "monoblock"-type seal.
EndoREZ Points can be used with all obturation techniques, including
warm GP and lateral condensation.
USING EPIPHANY WITH SYSTEM B
Set the temperature to 150°C. and the power to 10.
USING EPIPHANY WITH THE OBTURA GUN
• For the 25 gauge needle tips, set the temperature to 160°C.
• For the 23 gauge needle tips, set the temperature to 140°C.
• For the 20 gauge needle tips, set the temperature to 120-130°C.
The Fiberfill Obturator
-Resin and glass fiber post with a terminal gutta
percha tip.
-The gutta percha is available either in 5 or 8mm
lengths.
-The diameter of the post : 30, 40, 50, 60, 70 ,80.
apical gutta percha is retreatable,
-removal of the bonded fiber post has proven to be
difficult.
-resin-based system can actually increase the
strength of roots.
Each FibreFill obturator :
 unidirectional fibers in an organic resin matrix.
 gutta percha is attached via a thin, flexible filament
The FibreFill obturator bonded to the tooth,
The obturator not only fills the canal but also serves as a post
FibreFill Root Canal Sealant, provides a more effective apical and coronal seal
CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE
SYSTEM B COMPACTION
• Also called continuous wave
compaction technique.
• Variation of warm vertical
compaction.
• Heating element is contained
within specifically designed
pluggers ( Buchanan pluggers),
• tips of which are 0.5 mm in
diameter.
• Pluggers are tapered and made
up of stainless steel and come in
sizes; 0.06,0.08, 0.10, 0.12.
Technique :
• Fit a standardized gutta percha cone in the root canal preparation.
• A Buchanan plugger is chosen that matches the taper of the selected
gutta percha cone and a rubber stopper is placed on the plugger 5 mm
short of WL.
• Buchanan plugger is fitted to its binding point in the canal. Stop is
adjusted and the plugger is removed.
• Canal is dried and the cone is cemented.
CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE
• System B unit is set to 2000
c at touch mode and plugger is introduced
in the canal and activated to remove excess coronal material.
• Preheated plugger is driven smoothly through the GP until it stops.
Procedure is repeated until the plugger is within 0.5 – 1 mm of the
binding point.
• Apical pressure without heat is maintained for 10 seconds to take up
any shrinkage that might occur upon cooling.
• Since the Buchanan pluggers heat from their tips back, heat burst in
this portion can lead to coronal surplus of GP from the already
condensed mass.
• The canal is now ready for “obtura backfill”.
CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE
1. MASTER CONE CEMENTATION.
The master cone is cemented in the canal with sealer.
2. INITIATION OF DOWN PACK
With the omni directional "trigger" switch activated
3. SUSTAINED APICAL
CONDENSATION. The omni
directional "trigger" switch should be
released once within 3-4 mm of the
apical constriction.

CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE
Advantages and Disadvantages
Lateral/Vertical Compaction of Warm Gutta-percha.
 
Considering the ease and speed of lateral compaction as well as the superior
density gained by vertical compaction of warm gutta-percha, Martin developed a
device that appears to achieve the best qualities of both techniques that was called
Endotec II (Medidenta Inc; Woodside, N.Y.)
Endotec II handpiece contains battery power pack.

Martin and Fischer have shown, in a photo elastic stress test, that “warm lateral
condensation (Endotec) created less stress during obturation than did cold lateral
condensation.”
Martin pointed out that the Schilder compaction method leads to 0.45% shrinkage,
and since Endotec temperatures are lower than with the other technique, shrinkage
following Endotec usage should be lower as well
CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE
SECTIONAL COMPACTION
• Modifications of the vertical compaction.
• Known as the “Chicago” technique
since it was widely promoted by Coolidge,Blayney, and Lundquist, all
from Chicago.

One other innovation using the thermo mechanical principle to compact gutta-percha in
the root canal has been introduced as the J.S. Quick-Fill (J.S. Dental Co., Sweden/USA).
This system consists of titanium core devices that come in ISO sizes 15 to 60, resemble
latch-type endodontic drills, coated with alpha-phase gutta-percha.
Thermo mechanical Solid-Core Gutta-percha Obturation.
J.S. Quick-Fill titanium carriers coated with alpha-phase gutta percha comes

APICAL THIRD FILLING
 SimpliFill Obturation Technique
SimpliFill was originally developed by Senia at Light Speed Technology to
complement the canal shape created using Light Speed instruments.
The Apical GP Plug size is the same ISO size as the LightSpeed “Master
Apical Rotary” (MAR)
Apical third filling
•LIGHTSPEED's very short cutting blade provides more accurate
tactile feedback which helps determine when the canal has been
properly cleaned.
•LIGHTSPEED's taper less shaft gives it more flexibility than
others.   This flexibility keeps it centered, virtually eliminating
ledging, zipping and perforating the canal.
 
•LIGHTSPEED instrumentation is conservative.  It removes
sufficient dentin to clean and shape without over-enlarging the
canal and weakening the root.  This approach reduces the risk of
future root fracture.
Apical third filling
 
SimpliFill is a relatively new
two-phased obturation method
use of a stainless steel carrier to place
compact a 5 mm segment of gutta-percha into the apical portion
Once placed, the carrier is removed, leaving a plug of gutta-percha.

• It is used as an apical obturation material before complete obturation
of the canal.
• Following cleaning and shaping, canal is dried and MTA is placed.
• The material is compacted into the apical portion of the root to form
a barrier.
• After the material sets,GP can then be compacted without extrusion
Advantages :
• sterile, biocompatible
• Induces hard tissue formation at the apical region.
• Rapid, eliminating the need for numerous visits.

NON INSTRUMENTATION TECHNIQUE OF OBTURATION
Fully automatic method:
• Mechanism of root canal preparation: Rapid pressure changes under partial
vaccum cause bubble formation which then implode (cavitations). This
process takes place at least 250 times per second and produces an intense
exchange of sodium hypochlorite within the canals.
• Strong tissue dissolving action of NaOCl removes pulp tissue within 10-15
minutes.
• Mechanism of root canal obturation: The device consists of a multistage
vaccum pump which when fitted to the tooth creates vaccum in prepared
canals. The root canal filling paste is then sucked in the canal.
• The pump contains a ball inside, which prevents air entry in the reservoir.

  • 3.  RECENT ADVANCES IN OBTURATING TECHNIQUES  CLINICAL APPLICATIONS  REFERENCES AND CONCLUSION
  • 4.
  • 5.
  • 6. 19th century Koecker : Red hot wire cauterize pulp Gold to fill the canal Various materials used : Bamboo, waxes, asbestos, POP, cotton, ivory, wood , rubber . Metals , zinc , amalgam. 1847--- Hill’s Stopping.- Gutta Percha: 1867--- BOWNMAN first root canal filling using gutta-percha in extracted tooth.
  • 7. 1847: ASA HILL introduced Gutta Percha in the form of “Hill’s Stopping” Bleached gutta percha+ carbonate of lime & quartz 1883: PERRY –used gold wire wrapped with GP RICHMOND used orange wood coated with gutta-percha 1887: SS White company first began to manufacture GP 1914: CALLAHAN: Used various metals for Obturation …….. Silver was the most common. 1977 : Thermoplasticized Injectable Gutta-percha Obturation was introduced
  • 8. In 1978, JOHNSON described a unique yet simple method of canal , obturation with Thermoplasticized alpha-phase gutta-percha carried into the canal on an endodontic file. A Totally new concept of heat softening and compacting gutta-percha was introduced by MCSPADDEN in 1979. GUTTA-PERCHA has been known to dentistry for over 100 years, and is by far the most universally used solid-core root canal filling material.
  • 9. Objectives of obturation Total debridement, try to get a fluid tight seal by total obliteration of canal space • Stops coronal leakage • Entombs surviving bacteria • Stops influx of periapical tissues and release of bacterial elements . The commonly used term “hermetic seal” is not accurate. “Hermetic” is defined as “airtight by fusion or sealing.” Air is not the problem at the periapex—fluid is the problem. “Impermeable” is a more accurate term. Fluid Impervious, Fluid Tight , Bacteria Tight Seal – appropriate to use .
  • 10. Methods of obturation Direction of Compaction : Lateral Vertical Temperature of the gutta percha: Cold Warm Based on need of sealer : With sealer Without sealer (Paste fills) Based on number of cone used : Single cone technique Multiple cone technique
  • 11. ACC to GROSSMAN: 1. Lateral 2. Vertical 3. Sectional 4. Compaction ( McSpadden technique) 5. Thermoplasticized gutta percha 6. Chemically plasticized gutta percha
  • 12. Acc to Cohen: 1. Semisolid materials 2. Solid materials 3. Rigid cones Semisolid materials: • Chloroform dip technique • Lateral • Lateral and vertical • Sectional • Thermoplasticized materials • Thermo-mechanical condensation • Chemically plasticized gutta percha • Pressure syringe technique • Pastes Solid materials: • Silver cones • Stainless steel points Rigid cones • Vitallium • Cr-Co implant points
  • 13. Acc to INGLE •Lateral condensation •Vertical condensation •Sectional condensation •Chemically plasticized •Thermo –compaction •Thermoplasticized GP technique •Ultrasonic plasticizing technique •Light speed sectional technique •Solid core material technique •Hybrid technique •Others
  • 14. Classification according to J.J. Messing and C.J.R. Stock (1988) 1. Sectional • Silver • Titanium • Gutta percha • Amalgam 2. Single Cone • Gutta percha • Silver • Titanium point 3. Multiple cone • Cold lateral condensation • Warm lateral condensation • Hot vertical condensation • Custom made 4. Gutta percha with solvents 5. Thermal compaction 6.

  • 18.
  • 20. RESILON Resilon is a polymer based thermoplastic resin containing bioactive glass, bismuth oxychloride, barium sulphate and additional radiopaque fillers Resilon is a industrial polyurethane Adapted for dental use .
  • 21. The polymer has an improved flexural strength and, when used in conjunction with a resin-based sealer, offers improved bonding potential compared with gutta- percha. Resilon is non mutagenic, non toxic , and biocompatible. Sizes: ISO #15 - # 40,Cone tapers: S1, S2, S3. Resilon is the central component of the Epiphany™ Soft Resin Endodontic Obturation System (Pentron Clinical Technologies, LLC), and RealSeal™ (SybronEndo). These systems include three primary components:  Resilon core material  Resin sealer  Primer
  • 22. Primer. The primer—a self-etch primer that contains  Sulfonic acid-terminated functional monomer,  2- hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA),  water  Polymerization initiator. HEMA enhances the bonding of resin to dentin.
  • 23. Sealer in an auto mixing barrel syringe. The Resin Sealer—a dual-curing, resin-based composite sealer. The resin matrix is composed of bisphenol-A-glycidyldimethacrylate (BisGMA) ethoxylated BisGMA, urethanedimethacrylate (UDMA) and hydrophilic difunctional methacrylates. It contains fillers of calcium hydroxide, barium sulfate, barium glass, and silica total filler content is approximately 70% by weight.
  • 24. Obtura Gun.Resilon points Resilon Pellet The Resilon core material a thermoplastic synthetic polymer-based root canal core material : bioactive glass, bismuth oxychloride and barium sulfate. The filler content is approximately 65% by weight.
  • 26. Because Resilon is a synthetic polymer, the resin sealer attaches to it, as well as to the bonding agent/primer used to penetrate into the dentin tubules. As a result, a ‘monoblock’ is formed, consisting of filling material resin sealer-bonding agent/primer-dentin. Sealer used for resilon is called ‘Epiphany’ or ‘Real seal’
  • 27. Technique : Resilon can be softened with heat or dissolved with solvents such as chloroform for retreatment purposes. It is available as master cones and accessory cones in different sizes, and as Resilon pellets. Flushing the root canals : with 17% ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and/or 2% chlorhexidine removes this smear layer and residual sodium hypochlorite
  • 28. Advantages : • Very less microleakage due to ‘Monobloc’ and also ‘Double Seal’ • Resilon is a bonded resin system, it has the potential to strengthen the root. • Resilon is highly radiopaque and handles well with both cold and heated root canal filling techniques. • Healing in a short period of time.
  • 29. RealSeal is applied in the same way as gutta percha. Use the obturation technique of your choice, adding only a priming step before filling. Has excellent handling, working time and flow characteristics. RealSeal flows easily into the accessible lateral anatomy of the root canal system. RealSeal EndoREZ EndoREZ Points are unique, resin-coated gutta percha cones. The resin coating bonds with EndoREZ during obturation resulting in more complete "monoblock"-type seal. EndoREZ Points can be used with all obturation techniques, including warm GP and lateral condensation.

  • 32. Each FibreFill obturator :  unidirectional fibers in an organic resin matrix.  gutta percha is attached via a thin, flexible filament The FibreFill obturator bonded to the tooth, The obturator not only fills the canal but also serves as a post FibreFill Root Canal Sealant, provides a more effective apical and coronal seal
  • 33. CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE SYSTEM B COMPACTION • Also called continuous wave compaction technique. • Variation of warm vertical compaction. • Heating element is contained within specifically designed pluggers ( Buchanan pluggers), • tips of which are 0.5 mm in diameter. • Pluggers are tapered and made up of stainless steel and come in sizes; 0.06,0.08, 0.10, 0.12.
  • 34. Technique : • Fit a standardized gutta percha cone in the root canal preparation. • A Buchanan plugger is chosen that matches the taper of the selected gutta percha cone and a rubber stopper is placed on the plugger 5 mm short of WL. • Buchanan plugger is fitted to its binding point in the canal. Stop is adjusted and the plugger is removed. • Canal is dried and the cone is cemented. CANAL WARMED GUTTA PERCHA TECHNIQUE
  • 35. • System B unit is set to 2000 c at touch mode and plugger is introduced in the canal and activated to remove excess coronal material. • Preheated plugger is driven smoothly through the GP until it stops. Procedure is repeated until the plugger is within 0.5 – 1 mm of the binding point. • Apical pressure without heat is maintained for 10 seconds to take up any shrinkage that might occur upon cooling. • Since the Buchanan pluggers heat from their tips back, heat burst in this portion can lead to coronal surplus of GP from the already condensed mass. • The canal is now ready for “obtura backfill”.
