STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
6.5.1
Cone Fit & Plugger Selection
1. Prepare the canal optimally recognizing shaping facilitates 3-D
cleaning and filling.
2. Select a larger size manual plugger that will work passively and
effectively over a range of a few millimeters in the coronal one-third of
the canal.
3. Select a medium size manual plugger that will work passively and
effectively over a range of a few millimeters in the middle one-third of
the canal.
4. Select a smaller size manual plugger that will work passively,
effectively and deeper in the straightaway portion of the canal and to
within 4-5mm of the canal terminus.
5. Select an electric heated plugger that will passively fit through the
straightaway portion of the canal and optimally to within 5mm from the
working length. Set the silicone stop at this depth to promote safety
and accuracy.
6. In a fluid-filled canal, fit a non-standardized, fully tapered gutta-percha
master cone that visually goes to the working length, exhibits apical
tugback and is confirmed radiographically.
7. Dry the canal with appropriately sized paper points to determine final
working length.
8. Trim the master cone back to the canal terminus based on the paper
point drying technique.
9. Lubricate the master cone lightly with sealer and gently insert it to
length.
