Abstract

Abstract : Opian Carrier Method which is a method of vertical condensation of root canal filling is so performed that after the gutta percha point is softened in flame, it is immersed in eucalyptus oil mixture and vertically condensated in the root canal.

 Opian Gutta was studied and developed as exclusive use for the gutta percha point on 1983, since then it has been clinically used until now.

 Studies on fluidity and conformity and safety to tissue of this root canal filling material were made in the past. In my studies this material has campared with a gutta percha point on the market to examine obturating ability in the apex of root.

 The results suggest that obturating ability of Opian Gutta is excellent.
