Answers:

For the filling of the canals the dentists use Gutta Percha either in strand form or in liquid form. This is to seal the canals which are empty after the RCT where earlier there was pulp tissue. This material fills the canals and seal it hermitically so that further infection is not possible. for more information you can visit the following link in very informative dental website
