- An ultra-slim dental post system designed for the most conservative root canal preparations
Uses
- Ultra-Narrow Canal Restoration:
- Specifically engineered for very thin root canals where preserving maximum natural dentin is critical, the "Size 00" (White) is the smallest diameter in the Pac-Flex range, featuring a 0.78mm diameter
- Endodontic Foundation:
- Serves as a biocompatible anchor for core buildup materials after root canal therapy in delicate teeth
- High-Aesthetic & Sensitive Cases:
- Utilizing titanium ensures long-term biocompatibility and corrosion resistance for patients with metal sensitivities
Features
- Split-Shank Technology:
- A patented design where the shank collapses slightly during insertion to redirect stress toward the post itself, rather than the fragile root walls
- Wider Coronal Shank:
- Increases the "intimacy of fit" in the upper portion of the canal, providing enhanced stability despite its small overall size
- Venting Channel:
- A vertical groove that avoids hydrostatic pressure during cementation, ensuring the post seats fully even in tight spaces
- Self-Cutting Sharp Threads:
- Surgically sharp threads cut into the dentin for high mechanical retention without the tissue compression associated with traditional tapered posts
Benefits
- Maximized Dentin Preservation:
- The 0.78mm sizing allows for successful restoration in canals where larger posts would risk perforation or over-weakening of the root
- Reduced Fracture Risk:
- The stress-distributing split-shank design is clinically proven to significantly lower the likelihood of vertical root fractures
- Simplified Identification:
- Part of a color-coded system (White for Size 00) that makes it easy for clinical staff to organize and select matching components quickly
