CUYAHOGA FALLS, Ohio--Coltène/Whaledent has announced the introduction of hygenic retention points, the new gutta percha points with a surface structure.

Retention is an important aspect of root canal fillings. The hygenic retention points-structured surface provides a greater contact area for sealers, giving the product greater mechanical retention.

The retention points are available in the GuttaFlow and GuttaFlow fast obturation kits, and in individual packages available from a dental dealer. Hygenic retention points are the newest addition to the list of products from Coltène/Whaledent, a leader in the development of solutions for dentistry.
