The RTD LIGHT-POST combines the most modern aspects of translucency and radiopacity with the 2-stage taper design that made RTD’s fiber posts world-famous.

Made from quartz fibres, the LIGHT-POST is available in 3 sizes. Its overall design is tapered, to conserve tooth structure, and is comprised of two cylindrical sections, which provide maximum surface area for bonding and maximum bulk for strength.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES

• Flexural Strength: 1600 MPa
• Interlaminate Shear Strength: 60-75 MPa
• Radiopacity: 1.25-1.50 mm Al equivalent
• Fatigue Strength: >10 Millions Cycles Without Breaking

FEATURES AND BENEFITS

• Two-Stage Tapered shape: Good adaptation & conservative preparation
• Low modulus of elasticity: Prevent root fracture
• High strength and fatigue resistance: Long term durability
• Radiopaque: Easy diagnostic
• Translucent: Aesthetic & light transmission
• Corrosion free: Prevent de-bonding, root fracture & discoloration
