Whether you perform one root canal treatment per month or one per hour, it’s all about having confidence in your technique.
GuttaCore gives you that confidence with its warm gutta-percha that you send flowing three-dimensionally throughout the entire canal system with the ease of a single insertion.
Delivering Gutta-Percha in latereral and accessory canals, beyond challenging curves and into the apex.
The warm gutta-percha flowability allows to obturate even challenging cases with confidence.
Offers the ease of a single insertion so patients spend less time in your chair.
Scientific studies show the effectiveness of GuttaCore compared to other techniques in achieving a complete fill throughout the canal system. GuttaCore delivers the highest gutta-percha content with fewer apical and coronal voids than cold lateral techniques.1
To achieve apical adaptation of the master cone, warm vertical techniques must be 3-5 mm from the working length.3 Yet thermal penetration of the gutta-percha was limited — with significant thermal effect rarely exhibited more than 4-6 mm into the material.2
Significantly lower retreatment time than Thermafil Plus and Warm Vertical techniques.4

To ensure GuttaCore is free to flow into intricate canal anatomies, remove debris and smear layer with irrigating solutions activated with the EndoActivator System.
Activation of full strength sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) using irrigation activating technology killed more bacteria and dissolved more tissues than nonactivated irrigation.5
