SurgiWorld supplies restorative pluggers and condensers to dental clinics across Canada.
What is in the range
The range includes Marquette 0/1 pluggers and condensers (serrated and non-serrated), the 153 serrated English pattern, Hollenback H1 to H4, Tanner 1T to 3T, and Black 1/2 pluggers.
How to choose
Face size and shape set where each plugger works best. Serrated faces grip while condensing, and smooth non-serrated faces leave a smooth surface. Larger faces suit wide preparations, and smaller ones reach narrow areas.
Clinical use
These instruments pack and condense restorative material into the preparation.
All instruments are made from medical grade stainless steel and can be autoclaved between patients.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a plugger and a condenser?
The terms are often used interchangeably. Instruments with a larger, flat face are usually called condensers.
When should I use a non-serrated plugger?
Use one where a smooth face is wanted against the material, such as when placing composite.
