Elongated retractable conductive means, such as a heat conducting wire, extends longitudinally in the shank and has one end terminating in the plug for detachable affixing the plug to the shank and for causing heating and softening of the plug, the conductive means being slidable in the shank for withdrawing the one end from the plug to enable the shank to be used in condensing the heat softened plug within the dental root canal.
