Dental Endodontic Glick #1 Blade & Root Canal Plugger – Stainless Steel CE
The Glick #1 is a double-ended endodontic instrument that dentists use to pack and trim gutta-percha during root canal filling. One end is a plugger. The other end is a flat blade. This Glick #1 endodontic plugger and blade is made from medical-grade stainless steel, CE certified, and fully autoclavable, so it fits easily into a busy practice. It is one of the many dental instruments we supply to dentists and clinics across the USA.
What Is a Glick Instrument?
Glick is the pattern name for a double-ended hand instrument used in endodontics. You may also see it written as glick endo instrument, Glick number 1, or Glick #1 dental instrument. All of these names point to the same tool. Each end does a different job, so one handle replaces two separate instruments at the chairside.
How the Two Ends Work
The Plugger End
The plugger has a blunt, round tip. Dentists use it for vertical condensation, which means pressing softened gutta-percha down into the canal so it fills the space tightly. Steady pressure helps the material settle against the canal walls and reduces gaps. Tip sizes differ between makers, so contact our team if you need an exact size match.
The Blade End
The flat blade cuts off excess gutta-percha at the canal opening. When heated, it can sever the material cleanly. Its flat shape also helps you place and smooth filling material in tight spaces.

Why Choose This Glick #1 Endodontic Plugger
Many product pages for this instrument only say what it is. They skip the details a dentist actually needs, such as what each end does and how to care for it. We kept this page practical so you can decide quickly.
Brand-name Glick #1 pluggers can sell for around $50 or more per piece. This MediTek version gives you the same double-ended function in CE certified stainless steel, which makes it a sensible choice when you are stocking several operatories or replacing worn instruments. The blade and plugger combination also keeps your tray lighter, because you need fewer separate tools.
Care and Sterilization Tips
Good care keeps a stainless steel instrument sharp and smooth for years. Follow your clinic protocol and these basic steps:
- Wipe off gutta-percha and debris right after use
- Clean in an ultrasonic bath or instrument washer
- Rinse and dry the instrument fully
- Pack it in a sterilization pouch or cassette
- Autoclave it as your protocol requires
- Avoid bleach and chloride-heavy solutions, which can stain or pit stainless steel
Build a Complete Endodontic Setup
The Glick #1 works best as part of a full instrument set. Many practices stock it alongside scalers and curettes so one order covers both endodontic and routine clinical needs. Ordering together also saves time when you are restocking.
