Thermoplasticized Obturation

Thermoplasticized Obturation is a root canal obturation technique that belongs to the class of filling methods utilizing heat to render gutta-percha or other solid core materials pliable and flowable, thereby enabling three-dimensional adaptation to the prepared root canal walls through differential cooling and compaction.
