- A high-retention dental post system used for stabilizing root-canal-treated teeth
Uses
- Endodontic Reconstruction:
- Providing a structural anchor for teeth that have undergone root canal therapy and lost significant crown structure
- Core Buildup Support:
- Acting as a mechanical foundation for composite or other core materials to build upon
- Medium Canal Sizing:
- The "Size 1" (Red) variant is an intermediate option, typically utilized for root canals with a 1.20mm diameter
Features
- Split-Shank Technology:
- A patented design that redirects insertion stresses toward the post rather than the tooth root, minimizing the risk of fracture
- Wider Coronal Shank:
- Increases the "intimacy of fit" in the upper, wider portion of the root canal for enhanced stability
- Active Self-Cutting Threads:
- Sharp threads cut into the dentin rather than compressing it, ensuring high mechanical retention
- Venting Channel:
- A vertical groove that prevents hydrostatic pressure buildup during cementation, ensuring the post seats completely
- Cross-Slotted Head:
- The head features slots that accommodate a wrench to facilitate placement in narrow or restricted areas
Benefits
- Reduced Clinical Risk:
- The split-shank design significantly lowers the likelihood of vertical root fractures compared to solid-shank posts
- High Biocompatibility:
- Manufactured from titanium, offering excellent durability and compatibility for patients with metal sensitivities
- Precise Preparation:
- The inclusion of a matching Size 1 Red Reamer in the refill kit ensures a perfectly calibrated fit between the post and the canal wall
- Serrated Retention:
- The serrated head provides superior mechanical locking for core buildup materials
