Macro-Lock ILLUSION X-RO #2: High-Strength, Radiopaque Fiber Posts for Dental Restoration
Description:
Experience the superior strength and aesthetics of Macro-Lock ILLUSION X-RO #2 fiber posts, featuring the patented X-RO fiber technology from RTD France. Engineered with unique components for exceptional radiopacity, these posts offer unmatched performance and reliability, validated by rigorous in vitro and clinical studies. The X-RO fiber, created through a proprietary heat-treatment and pre-tensioning process, achieves unparalleled strength (1800-2000 MPa, ISO 14125) and fatigue resistance (over 10 million cycles), exceeding industry standards. The innovative design incorporates a special bonding agent for exceptional adhesion between the 12-micron fibers and epoxy matrix, ensuring superior interlaminar shear strength. The semi-transparent post features a color-coded composite matrix that becomes translucent in the mouth, reappearing under cold air or water for easy identification during re-treatment. Achieve optimal restoration with Macro-Lock ILLUSION X-RO #2.
Key Features & Benefits:
- Unmatched Strength & Durability: 1800-2000 MPa flexural strength and >10 million cycle fatigue resistance guarantee longevity and prevent root fracture.
- Exceptional Radiopacity: 340% Al eq. radiopacity (ISO # 4049) ensures easy identification on X-rays. (Note: Radiopacity varies slightly depending on the post size; ranging from 476% to 573% Al eq.)
- Superior Aesthetics: Semi-transparent design for natural tooth appearance and light transmission.
- Ease of Use: Color-coding for simple identification and streamlined placement. The color disappears during placement and reappears if needed.
- Biocompatible: Successfully passed all biocompatibility tests (ISO # 10993).
- Macroretention: Provides exceptional retention within the root canal.
- Low Modulus of Elasticity: Mimics dentin, reducing the risk of root fracture (15 GPa).
- Corrosion Resistant: Maintains integrity and prevents degradation over time.
- Simple Removal: Facilitates efficient removal procedures.
- No Silane Coating Needed: Simplifies the procedure.
- 6 Color-Coded Sizes: Accommodates diverse anatomical and clinical needs.
- Tapered Design: Anatomically conforms to the root canal for optimal fit.
- High Interlaminar Shear Strength: Ensures robust bonding to the restoration.
Indications:
Ideal for supporting and reinforcing crown restorations when residual tooth structure is less than 4 mm.
Contraindications:
Not recommended when residual coronal tooth structure is less than 1.5 mm.
Precautions:
- Cleanse the post with alcohol before insertion.
- Avoid touching the post with fingers after cleaning.
- Trim the post outside the oral cavity.
- Use a rubber dam during placement.
- Ensure at least 1.5 mm of healthy dentin covers the post for optimal retention.
