› Drying is a step, not a formality. Sealer behaves differently in a wet canal, and the instructions name a dedicated paper point for the job: “Use dedicated paper points to dry and dedicated gutta-percha points to obturate the root canals.”
› Cell packed. Each point sits in its own cell, so you take one out without handling the rest.
› Matched to the file, not to an ISO size. ProTaper Gold preparations are variable taper. The point follows that shape.
How many do I get?
