A slight twist of the pluggerwill disengage it from the gutta-percha, when the latter may be tampedfirmly, but not too forcibly, to place. No further filling of the canal wasdone in this case, the canal being left open to receive a post. What will happen if the canal filling either fails to reach the apex orpasses a little beyond it ? An abscess may result. If the canal filling fails toreach the apical foramen, in such cases as the one just described, an abscessis very likely to occur.
