Hahnenkratt Contec Blanco Fiber Post

Description

The Hahnenkratt Contec Blanco Fiber Post is a pioneer in dental care, specifically designed for conical roots. Its double cone shape mimics natural root canals, ensuring precise fit and stability.

The tapered post enhances compatibility with slender roots, while spiral retention lines in the apical region optimize adhesion to composite materials, preventing twisting and enhancing durability.

Scientifically tested and proven, it boasts high bending strength and superior fatigue resistance. Reinforced with HT glass fiber, it optimizes root structure stability, promoting long-term dental health. Hahnenkratt remains at the forefront, continuing to innovate in dental technology with Contec Blanco, offering reliability and excellence in restorative dentistry.

Key Features

• The Contec root post system features HT glass fiber, enhancing stability and durability of dental restorations.

• Glass fiber’s elastic properties mimic dentine more closely than metals like Titanium or Zirconium, creating a biomechanically homogeneous unit with the tooth and composite, ensuring long-term stability.

• The post includes cylindrical and conical parts, with rounded retentions in the head-section for secure bonding and anti-rotation. Spiral escape grooves in the apical section aid in decompression and retention.

• Fibre-structured micro retentive surface eliminates the need for silanization, enhancing bonding efficiency and longevity of restorations.

• The white and semi-translucent glass fiber posts provide an ideal foundation for esthetic restorations with fully ceramic crowns, ensuring natural appearance and patient satisfaction.

Directions for Use

• Insertion and Biting Position Check:

• • Insert the Contec fiber post into the prepared root canal to test the fit and check the biting position.
  • Mark the required post height (occlusion height) on the post.

• Post Shortening:

  • Remove the post from the root canal.
  • Shorten the post extraorally using a fine diamond wheel. Use sharp instruments to avoid creating dust and moisten the post during cutting.

• Cleaning and Preparation:

  • Clean the Contec fiber post with alcohol to remove any contaminants.
  • Dry the post thoroughly using warm air.

• Preparing the Root Canal:

  • Condition the dentin using an adhesive technique:
    • Apply 37% phosphoric acid to the root canal and cavity, then rinse with water.
    • Rinse the canal with alcohol (e.g., 70%) and dry it using paper tips.
    • Apply the primer and absorb excess with paper tips.
    • Apply the bonder and absorb excess with paper tips. Do not polymerize the bonder with light.

• Composite Application:

  • Optionally, apply a thin layer of dual-polymerizing bonder without polymerizing it with light.
  • Apply low-viscosity, dual-polymerizing, X-ray visible composite into the root canal using a lentulo spiral, following the manufacturer’s instructions.

• Post Insertion:

  • Apply composite quickly to the Contec fiber post.
  • Insert the post immediately and slowly into the root canal, turning it slightly to ensure even distribution of composite and secure placement.
  • Hold the post in position until the composite hardens sufficiently to secure the post firmly.

• Finishing:

  • Distribute any excess composite evenly around the protruding post and cavity.
  • Remove remaining excess composite carefully.

• Curing:

  • Use a polymerization lamp to cure the composite for approximately 40 seconds, following the instructions for use related to the composite material.

• Final Restoration:

  • Complete the final restoration quickly using a viscous core composite.
  • Use a transparent plastic shell (frasaco) or matrix band if necessary to shape the restoration accurately.
