ABSTRACT:
A method is provided for filling an endodontically prepared root canal in a tooth including the steps of injecting flowable filler material, such as gutta percha, preferably after the filler material has been heated, into the root canal to at least substantially fill the root canal, inserting an obturator shaft into the root canal to displace the flowable filler material to more completely fill the root canal, and severing the obturator shaft into two portions, retaining the shaft portion therein within the root canal and removing the severed portion from the tooth. The root canal having been filled, the tooth can then be repaired in the normal procedure for completion of an endodontic procedure.
