The sterilization of gutta‐percha points

Australian Dental Journal, 1975
Abstract— The traditional methods employed for the sterilization of gutta‐percha points are unsatisfactory. The use of propylene oxide for this purpose is described and experimental evidence is advanced to support this use.

Physical measurements on gutta-percha

Oral Surgery, Oral Medicine, Oral Pathology, 1971
Abstract Various physical measurements have been made on gutta-percha, including changes in hardness with temperature, linear expansion with increasing temperature, expansion from soaking in water, and tip-thrust values of endodontic gutta-percha points at various temperatures.

A new gutta-percha technique

Journal of Endodontics, 1978
A sealer, stainless steel files, and thermally plasticized gutta-percha were used in a filling technique to obtain a three-dimensional obturation of the root canal system. The technique eliminates the fitting of a master cone and does not require the special skills that are needed in other techniques for the apical placement of master cones.

Evaluation of gutta-percha solvents

Journal of Endodontics, 1990
Five solvents (rectified white turpentine, oil of melaleuca, eucalyptol, white pine oil, and pine needle oil) were compared with chloroform for their ability to dissolve gutta-percha. All solvents dissolved at least 50% of the gutta-percha in 15 min at 37 degrees C with chloroform and rectified white turpentine dissolving the gutta-percha completely.

Gutta percha obturation techniques

Clinical Techniques in Small Animal Practice, 2001
T h e most common cause of endodontic failure has been ascribed to incomplete obturation. Filling a root canal is intended to prevent microorganisms and toxins in the canal, as well as those present in the oral cavity, from passing along the root canal and moving out into the periradicular tissues. Matsumiya and Kitamura both demonstrated that bacteria
