- A Stainless Steel Refill Kit for the Pac-Flex Post System that is specifically used to provide structural support for core buildup materials
Uses
- Endodontic Reconstruction:
- Stabilizing a tooth after root canal therapy to support the final crown or restoration
- Anchoring Core Materials:
- Providing a mechanical lock for composite or other core buildup materials to rebuild missing tooth structure
- Intermediate Sizing:
- The "Size 1" (Red) variant is designed for specific root canal diameters, offering a medium-sized option within the Pac-Flex system
Features
- Split-Shank Technology:
- A patented design that allows the shank to collapse slightly during insertion, redirecting stress away from the root and toward the post itself
- Active Self-Cutting Threads:
- Surgically sharp threads that cut into the dentin for high mechanical retention without over-compressing the surrounding tissue
- Venting Channel:
- A vertical groove that allows hydrostatic pressure to escape during cementation, ensuring the post seats completely
- Serrated Head with Cross-Slots:
- The serrated design improves core material retention, while the cross-slots allow for the use of internal wrenches in tight spaces
- Color-Coded Identification:
- The posts and drills are color-coded (Red for Size 1) for easy clinical recognition and organization
Benefits
- Reduced Fracture Risk:
- By absorbing insertion stresses through its split shank, the system significantly lowers the risk of vertical root fractures
- Precise Fit:
- Matching reamers (specifically 1.20mm for Size 1) ensure a calibrated fit and maximum intimacy between the post and the dentin
- Efficient Handling:
- The kit's design facilitates better visibility and easier placement, even in narrow interdental areas
