Root canals are filled by gutta percha. Over it a permanent restoration is done. Then your tooth is shaped by cutting and impression taken for crown.

Gutta percha is the filling within the root canals. Cavity will be restored by another material after some time has passed after gutta percha filling.

Gutta percha is the permanent filling material of the root canals ,its the last step of rct called obturation. After this there will be permanent filling of the crown which is called core build up. After that there will crown reduction (reshaping) and impression will be taken for making the crown. All the processes are painless hence do not worry at all.

You are right. Gutta percha is an permanent filling for the root canals but the remaining tooth is filled with other permanent fillings like gic and composite. We have to give shape to tooth for putting crown but it will not hurt you as the tooth is already dead. Don't worry. It's a reasonable question.

Yes. First the root canal is completed followed by filling the tooth, then shape the tooth for cap n then place the cap.

No, the Gutta-percha is the standard filling material. Gutta-percha is a natural polymer prepared from latex from a specific tree (the percha tree). ... The standard endodontic technique involves inserting a gutta-percha cone (or a "point") into the cleaned-out root canal along with a sealing cement.
