Paper Points and Gutta Percha Points
A sealer is placed in the canal followed by a
fitted gutta percha Master Point compacted
laterally by a tapering Spreader to make room
for additional accessory points

Insert a cone
with sealer
Apply a Finger Spreader
along the points
Then a new cone

Finger Spreader ….
Hybrid Technique with non standardized
gutta-percha points and Gutta-Condenser
After each point of
Gutta-Percha with
sealer, use the
Gutta-Condensor to
melt and fill the
canal.
