'Obturation pen' is a 2 in 1 machine which can cut and fill the gutta percha points into the treated root canal. Temperature can be up to 200°C. It is used to soften or cut off gutta percha points,and fill the root canal.. Using Obturation Pen, one applies pressure in a vertical direction to the heat softened gutta-percha and thereby causes it to flow and to fill the entire lumen of the canal.
Apical obturation instruments are designed to help clinicians pack gutta percha into shaped and cleaned root canals. The gutta percha is first thermosoftened with heat and then a 35, 40, or 45 hedstroem file is passively rotated clockwise into this mass. Let the gutta percha cool and harden within the blades, and upon withdrawing the hedstroem file, oftentimes the entire mass of gutta percha will be removed as well.
