Description
The Gutta Percha Point Dia Dent is a dental obturation point used during root canal treatments to fill and seal the cleaned and shaped root canal space reliably. These gutta percha points are precision-manufactured to match standard ISO file sizes and taper, offering consistent fit and predictable clinical results.
Gutta percha is a naturally derived thermoplastic material that is inert, biocompatible, and radiopaque for easy verification on X-rays. Its physical properties allow it to adapt to the complex anatomy of root canals when used with appropriate sealers and condensation techniques.

-
Radiopaque gutta percha formula for clear visibility in radiographs.
-
Latex-free material to support biocompatibility.
-
Available in multiple sizes corresponding to common endodontic files.
-
Package options include spill-proof or vial storage.
Benefits of Using Gutta Percha Point Dia Dent
Clinicians prefer Gutta Percha Point because it reliably seals the root canal system and minimizes the chance of reinfection. Gutta percha points are thermoplastic, enabling them to flow into canal irregularities under gentle pressure and condense around the root canal sealer.
These points provide excellent handling characteristics and do not provoke significant tissue irritation when used properly. They work with both cold lateral condensation and warm obturation techniques.
Applications of Gutta Percha Point Dia Dent
-
Filling cleaned and shaped root canal spaces during endodontic therapy.
-
Lateral and vertical condensation obturation techniques.
-
Use in general dentistry, endodontic specialist practice, and clinical dental settings.
Usage Guidelines
Select the point size that matches the final instrument used for canal preparation. Coat the point with a compatible endodontic sealer and place it gently into the canal to working length. Apply lateral or vertical pressure to adapt the point tightly against canal walls and achieve a fluid-tight seal.
Avoid overfilling beyond the canal terminus. Always verify position and seal on radiographs before final restoration.
