- A Stainless Steel Refill Kit for the Pac-Flex Post System that is specifically used for restoring teeth with wider root canals that require a Size 2 post
Uses
- Wider Canal Restoration:
- Specifically used for Size 2 preparations, providing a stable foundation for teeth with larger root canal diameters
- Post-and-Core Procedures:
- Provides mechanical retention for core build-up materials (like composite) when a tooth lacks sufficient structure after root canal treatment
- Sequential Preparation:
- Used after the primary canal space has been shaped to a 1.45mm diameter
Features
- Color-Coding:
- Coded Blue for quick identification and organization within the clinical setting
- Split-Shank Design:
- Features a patented split shank that collapses slightly during insertion to redirect stress toward the post rather than the tooth root
- Venting Channel:
- A vertical groove that avoids hydrostatic pressure buildup during cementation, ensuring the post is fully seated
- Sharp Threads:
- Designed to cut into the dentin for high retention rather than compressing it
Benefits
- Fracture Prevention:
- The stress-distributing split-shank technology significantly lowers the risk of vertical root fractures compared to traditional rigid posts
- Superior Stability:
- A wider coronal shank increases the "intimacy of fit" in the upper part of the canal, enhancing the overall stability of the restoration
- Enhanced Retention:
- The serrated head provides an excellent mechanical lock for core materials, ensuring the final crown remains securely attached
- Accessibility:
- Includes cross-slots in the post head, allowing for easy placement with an internal wrench (PIW003) in tight interdental area
