Gutta-percha injector

A gutta-percha injector is a hand-held, pistol-shaped device used in endodontic procedures to deliver heated and softened gutta-percha into the root canal. The device warms solid gutta-percha sticks until pliable, then extrudes them through a nozzle to fill and seal the canal space during root canal therapy.

This category includes reusable devices that are electrically heated and operated manually via a trigger mechanism. Regulatory classification and supply requirements vary by jurisdiction, but such devices are typically subject to medical device regulations governing reusable instruments, including requirements for cleaning, sterilization, and electrical safety.
