GDC Iso Sized Plugger -7 (.40mm) (Rcpcc40)

• Type: Iso Sized Plugger -7: This indicates that it is a plugger instrument and is part of the ISO sizing system used in dentistry. The "-7" represents the specific size or diameter of the plugger. In this case, it has a diameter of 0.40mm.
• Ergonomic Design: The plugger is typically designed with ergonomic considerations, allowing for comfortable and efficient handling during dental procedures. It may have a textured or knurled handle to provide a secure grip and control.
• Stainless Steel Construction: The plugger is commonly made of high-quality stainless steel or another durable material that is resistant to corrosion and can withstand repeated sterilization. This ensures longevity and maintains instrument integrity.
• Autoclavable: Dental instruments, including plugger instruments, need to be sterilized to ensure proper infection control. The GDC Iso Sized Plugger -7 is designed to be autoclavable, which means it can be safely sterilized using an autoclave, a common method of sterilization in dental practices.
• Markings or Color Coding: The plugger may feature markings or color coding on the handle to aid in instrument identification and organization. This helps dental professionals quickly identify the appropriate instrument during procedures.
• Single-Ended Design: The plugger typically has a single working end, which is the part used for compacting and condensing the filling material within the root canal. The opposite end may be rounded or have a non-working end for ease of handling and instrument manipulation.

The GDC Iso Sized Plugger -7 (.40mm) (Rcpcc40) is a dental instrument used in endodontic procedures. It is a plugger with a flat tip and a diameter of 0.40mm. The main function of this instrument is to vertically plug and condense gutta-percha material into the endodontic canal.

• Type: Endodontic Plugger
• Category: Endodontic
• Material: Stainless Steel
• Disposable / Reusable: Reusable
• Sterile / Non-Sterile: Non - Sterile
• Autoclavable: Yes

• 1 x Plugger

• Prepare the root canal: Begin by accessing and cleaning the root canal using standard endodontic techniques, such as shaping and irrigation.
• Filling the root canal: After cleaning and drying the root canal, apply a suitable root canal sealer to the canal walls. Gutta-percha cones, which are pre-fitted to match the canal size, are commonly used in combination with a plugger.
• Plugging and condensing: Take the GDC Iso Sized Plugger -7 (.40mm) (Rcpcc40) and carefully introduce the flat tip into the canal, applying vertical pressure to compact and condense the gutta-percha material. This process helps ensure a proper seal and filling of the root canal space.
• Incremental filling: Repeat the plugging and condensing process incrementally until the entire canal is filled. It's important to work in small sections to ensure thorough compaction and avoid voids.
• Verification and adjustment: After completing the filling process, use radiographs or other diagnostic tools to verify the quality and integrity of the root canal filling. Make any necessary adjustments to achieve an optimal outcome.
