Cerkamed ORANGE GUTTANE
100% Orange Oil for Dissolving Gutta-Percha During Endodontic Retreatment
Cerkamed ORANGE GUTTANE is a 100% orange oil preparation for softening and dissolving gutta-percha during endodontic retreatment. It is used when removing gutta-percha cones from the root canal as part of repeated root canal treatment.
For gutta-percha removal
ORANGE GUTTANE is intended for use during repeated root canal treatment to help remove gutta-percha cones from the canal. The oil softens the gutta-percha, allowing the clinician to remove it with the selected root canal instrument.
- Designed for endodontic retreatment
- Helps soften gutta-percha in the canal
- Useful when gutta-percha is dry or crumbly
- Supports mechanical removal with endodontic instruments
- For professional dental use only
Orange oil alternative to harsher solvents
Orange oil gutta-percha solvents are widely used in retreatment workflows where clinicians want to soften root filling material while maintaining controlled removal with files, hand instruments or retreatment systems.
- 100% orange oil composition
- 10ml bottle format
- Application pipettes supplied
- Reusable bottle
- Disposable pipettes for safer clinical use
Also works well with xp shaper & finisher and Yoshi's gutta percha removal instrument.
Toothsaver clinical view
Gutta-percha solvent should be used deliberately and sparingly. The aim is to soften the material enough to support controlled removal, not to flood the canal unnecessarily.
In retreatment, the safest approach is usually a combination of magnification, good access, appropriate instruments, irrigation and careful judgement about how much solvent is needed at each stage.
How ORANGE GUTTANE is used
Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for use. Cerkamed's general application sequence is:
- Before the procedure, dip the supplied pipette in ethanol and allow it to dry.
- Using the pipette, place 1–2 drops of liquid in the root canal.
- Remove the gutta-percha with the selected root canal instrument.
- If necessary, use another dose.
- Re-apply ORANGE GUTTANE if the gutta-percha is dry or crumbly.
- Repeat as needed until the desired effect is reached.
Clinical applications
- Endodontic retreatment
- Removal of gutta-percha cones
- Softening dry or crumbly gutta-percha
- Supporting hand-file or rotary retreatment workflows
- Removal of root filling material during repeated root canal treatment
- Use before canal cleaning, shaping and disinfection
Retreatment workflow context
ORANGE GUTTANE is an adjunct to mechanical removal. It does not replace careful canal negotiation, retreatment instrumentation or irrigation.
Use small amounts and remove softened material progressively. Avoid unnecessary overuse, especially before adhesive restorative stages.
Important bonding and dentine considerations
Cerkamed notes that gutta-percha dissolving oils can reduce dentine microhardness and may adversely affect the interaction between dentine and restorative materials.
After using a gutta-percha solvent, clean and irrigate thoroughly before definitive obturation, post placement or adhesive restorative procedures.
Important safety information
ORANGE GUTTANE is for use by dentists only. Do not use in patients with hypersensitivity to the product components.

ORANGE GUTTANE has cytotoxic potential. Endodontic treatment may involve temporary postoperative pain. Always read and follow the manufacturer's instructions before clinical use.
