Double Tapered Radiopaque Translucent
Fiber Post System
UNIQUE Features BENEFITS & Benefits
Translucency enhances aesthetics and light transmission
Radiopacity allows for visibility on radiographs
Double-tapered design closely conforms to the shape of the prepared canal to
minimize dentin removal and cement layer
Unidirectional, pretensed, quartz fibers bound in a resin matrix gives it a greater
flexural strength than metal posts
Maximum strength - no notches or serrations to compromise strength
Fiber optic design allows light to traverse through the post so it can be cemented
with light activated materials

CLINICAL Features SIGNIFICANCE & Benefits
RTD’s fiber posts have been placed in over 3,400 cases as part of a decade long
multi-center clinical trial. No clinical root fractures, due to elastic modulus close to
dentin 1,2,3 *
Retreatment is quick with the Double Taper LIGHT-POST Removal Kit and a
low-speed handpiece
Double Taper LIGHT-POST ILLUSION color-on-command technology
simplifies the task of removing the post in the event retreatment is ever required
* Double Taper LIGHT-POST / Double Taper LIGHT-POST ILLUSION are developed by RTD.

Developed at University of Montreal,
this is the first post to adapt to the treated
canal, rather than the reverse. These
tapers and diameters are derived from
thousands of measurements on hundreds
of endodontically treated teeth.
