Choice of root canal filling technique

Doctor, do you use warm obturation? I am thinking of switching to warm obturation. Would you recommend it?

Translated version of the Turkish original

I prefer lateral condensation; warm obturation material shrinks as it cools, and continuous pressure with a plugger is needed during cooling to keep shrinkage minimal. For this reason, I do not prefer warm obturation.
