11-1/2 Posterior Root Canal Plugger

11-1/2 Posterior Root Canal Plugger – Efficient Vertical Condensation for Posterior Teeth

The 11-1/2 Posterior Root Canal Plugger by Businessmed Instruments is a precision-engineered tool designed for optimal vertical compaction of gutta-percha in posterior root canals. With a 1.15 mm blunted plugger tip and 22 mm working length, this instrument offers the right balance of reach and control to seal molar and premolar canals effectively.

The plugger features laser-etched depth markings at every 5 mm, aiding clinicians in determining precise insertion depth during obturation. Its single-ended design allows focused use in tight posterior anatomy while minimizing risk to apical structures.

Crafted from French stainless steel, it offers strength, corrosion resistance, and autoclave compatibility. The H5 ergonomic hollow handle improves instrument balance and reduces operator fatigue, making it ideal for extended procedures.
