3M RelyX 3D Glass Fiber Posts - Size 2 Red Pack of 10

3M RelyX 3D Glass Fiber Posts are advanced dental posts specifically engineered for reliable and durable core build-ups in endodontically treated teeth. They are indicated for supporting and securing coronal restorations when there is insufficient residual tooth structure, defined as less than 4mm. These posts help to recreate abutments and preserve tooth strength following endodontic therapy.

Constructed from highly radiopaque glass fibers embedded within a composite resin matrix, these posts offer an advantageous combination of mechanical and esthetic properties. The glass fibers are oriented in parallel and equally distributed, and are pre-tensioned during manufacturing for enhanced post stability. Their dentin-like elasticity helps to distribute forces evenly along the root, reducing the risk of root fractures compared to metal posts.

Key Features : 

Coronal 3D macro retentions provide higher mechanical retention to the core build-up material
A microporous surface facilitates a strong bond in the root canal, eliminating the need for a silanating step
Enhanced radiopacity improves post position control within the root canal
Translucent properties ensure esthetic integration with surrounding dentition and allow for efficient light curing deep into the root canal

Preparation: Clean and disinfect the root canal thoroughly. Shape and prepare the post space according to standard endodontic procedures. Select the appropriate size of the RelyX™ Fiber Post. Etching and Bonding: Apply an etchant (phosphoric acid) to the post space for the recommended time. Rinse thoroughly and dry the area, ensuring not to desiccate the dentin. Apply a bonding agent and follow the curing instructions provided with the agent. Post Cementation: Load the syringe with the cement. Attach a suitable tip to the syringe. Inject the cement into the post space, starting from the bottom. Insert the fiber post, ensuring it is seated properly. Light-cure the cement as specified. Finishing: Trim and contour the post as required. Complete the restoration with a core build-up and proceed with final restorative steps.
