GUTTAFUSION® for RECIPROC® blue R25 · 6 obturators
Warm obturationCarrier techniqueRetreatableSingle use
Want the speed of a carrier technique without leaving a plastic core in the canal? GUTTAFUSION® obturators are made entirely of gutta-percha – cross-linked polymer chains give the core its stability, and a coating of flowable gutta-percha does the sealing. There is no plastic to work around at retreatment or post preparation. The R25 is matched to the canal a RECIPROC® blue R25 cuts, which is most of them.
This pack: 6 × GUTTAFUSION® obturators, size R25, with stoppers
Made by VDW GmbH, Munich – genuine RECIPROC® system component
| All gutta-percha | Cross-linked polymer chains for internal stability, coated in flowable gutta-percha – no plastic carrier |
| 4 mm flow | Micronised formula delivers warm gutta-percha up to 4 mm beyond the heat source (VDW) |
| Radiopaque | The beneficial characteristics of gutta-percha are retained, good radiopacity included (VDW) |
| Size R25 | Matched to a canal prepared to RECIPROC® blue R25 – verify with a size 025 verifier first |
› Shape, then verify. Confirm the prepared size with a GUTTAFUSION® Verifier 025 before you choose the obturator.
› Sealer goes in thinly. VDW name 2Seal® – applied with a paper point, excess removed with a second point.
› Do not twist it. The user card is explicit: bend the handle towards the centre of the cavity and separate at the canal entrance. Twisting spoils the fill.
Do I need the GUTTAFUSION oven?
Yes. The obturator is heated in the GUTTAFUSION® oven at setting 1, then placed within 3 seconds. It is a one-off purchase and is not part of this pack. QED does not currently list the oven – ask us and we will source it.
What if I need to retreat it later?
The RECIPROC® blue DFU covers exactly this – retreatment of gutta-percha fillings and carrier-based obturators with an R25. An all-gutta-percha carrier is a good deal simpler to remove than a plastic one.
Can I use these with cold cones instead?
They are alternatives, not a sequence. If you prefer a cold single cone, the matched R25 gutta percha is the product for that.
