Functionalization of gutta-percha surfaces with argon and oxygen plasma treatments to enhance adhesiveness [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Gutta-percha’s lack of adhesion has been presented as a drawback to avoid gaps at sealer/gutta-percha interface. Plasma treatments have been scarcely assessed on gutta-percha surfaces as a method of enhancing adhesiveness.

Microbial Evaluation of the Calamus Heated Gutta-Percha Delivery System [PDF]
, 2013 If gutta-percha cartridges are contaminated with bacteria prior to obturation then contamination of the root canal system may result. Successful treatment not only depends on bacterial elimination but also depends on prevention of recontamination.
