The carbon fiber pin is black in color and currently has the same mechanical strength as a glass fiber pin (1200 Mpa).
What drills should be used with Reforpost CARBON Fiber?Post 1 – Largo drill number 3
Post 2 – Largo drill number 4
Post 3 – Largo drill number 5
What are the steps for the cementation of Reforpost CARBON Fiber?Post preparation: clean with alcohol, apply silane (Silano – Angelus) for 1 minute, apply the adhesive.
Root canal: acid-etch (37% phosphoric acid for 30 seconds), wash with water, dry with absorbent paper points, apply the primer, apply the adhesive, place Reforpost with resin cement.
What is the advantage of a serrated post?The undercuts increase the retention of the post with the cement.
Why does Reforpost 1 have a smooth middle part, without undercuts?It’s thinner diameter and, consequently, less fiber, could render Reforpost 1 more fragile. So its middle part is smooth, thicker and stronger.
What cement should be used with Reforpost?For the cementation of CARBON fiber posts, self (chemically)-cured only resin cements are the best recommendation.
