Description: Coagulated exudate isolated from several species of the tropical tree Palaquium (Sapotaceae). It is the trans-isomer of natural rubber and is used as a filling and impression material in dentistry and orthopedics and as an insulator in electronics. It has also been used as a rubber substitute.

Also Known As:

1.	Smear Layer 06/01/2008 - "Scanning electron microscopy showed that all the post-space treatments tested were effective in removal of the smear layer of debris, or sealer/gutta-percha remnants, on the root canal. " 11/01/1993 - "In the absence of smear layer, the adaptation of gutta-percha was improved in all groups. " 06/01/2009 - "The aim of this study was to compare the apical leakage of roots obturated with gutta-percha using either an epoxy resin sealer (AH26) or a dual cure dentin binding agent (Excite DSC) as sealer in the presence or absence of smear layer with fluid filtration method. " 05/01/2009 - "CONCLUSIONS: Smear layer removal under the conditions tested in this study did not affect the obturation of root canal ramifications when lateral condensation of gutta-percha was the technique used for root canal filling." 12/01/2007 - "This in vitro study evaluated the ability of a warm gutta-percha obturation system Thermafil to fill lateral channels in presence/absence of smear layer.

2.	Periapical Periodontitis (Apical Periodontitis) 02/01/2008 - "OBJECTIVE: To study the relation on overfilling with gutta-percha point or paste and acute periapical periodontitis. " 10/01/2008 - "But the 0.06 tapered gutta-percha group showed more quickly healing trend on apical periodontitis. " 02/01/2008 - "METHODS: Collected sixty cases of acute periapical periodontitis which had been filled with gutta-percha point and paste within 1 week, and took dental radiographs. " 06/01/2006 - "The substantial reduction in apical periodontitis by the use of coronal plug underscores the clinical importance of providing an additional barrier to coronal leakage in comparison to that provided by gutta-percha and sealer alone." 12/01/2004 - "The participation of bacterial biofilms in the over-filled gutta-percha points associated with refractory periapical periodontitis has recently been reported. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
3.	Nonvital Tooth (Endodontically-Treated Teeth) 05/01/1989 - "This study investigated the seal created by cold burnishing the gutta-percha exposed after apical root resection of endodontically treated teeth. " 09/01/2008 - "Different tridimensional models were obtained by CAT images of an extracted tooth, endodontically treated, filled with guttapercha and triple conical glass post. " 03/01/2005 - "In group I, 83.3% of the teeth were evaluated normal, 53.6% of group II, and only 29.4% of group III. A gap between the gutta-percha and the post was related to an increased rate of emerged disease in endodontically treated teeth restored with a post and core." 03/01/2005 - "To determine whether the distance between the post and the residual gutta-percha influences the clinical outcome of endodontic treatment, 94 endodontically treated teeth following post and core restoration were evaluated radiographically. " 05/01/2004 - "BACKGROUND: The authors evaluated the fracture resistance of endodontically treated teeth filled with either gutta-percha or a new resin-based obturation material. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
4.	Wounds and Injuries (Trauma) 05/01/1998 - "OBJECTIVES: The purposes of this study were to determine the cytocompatibility of four endodontic sealers and gutta-percha using various extracts and to compare the cellular injuries resulting from these materials in permanent 3T3 monolayers and primary human periodontal ligament fibroblasts. " Order ALL the reference details at left...
5.	Tooth Fractures 05/01/2004 - "CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS; If other properties of the new resin-based obturation material compare favorably with those of gutta-percha for filling the root canal, it should be considered as a replacement for gutta-percha, as the results of this study indicate that it could provide enhanced resistance to tooth fracture."
