All D.T. Light-Posts Illusion X-RO feature a specific and innovative shape called Double Taper. This shape enables the correspondence between the root canal morphology obtained after the root canal preparation and the fiber post used by the clinician. This results in less dentin removal compared to single tapered posts. D.T. Light-Posts Illusion X-RO demonstrate high clinical in vivo performance that has been documented in more than 100 studies.

Product information

Double Taper Shape

Improved Quartz Fiber Technology:

  • Higher tensile strength than glass fiber
  • Superior light-transmission properties for polymerization of adhesive and cement

Patented Illusion Technology:

  • Thermally reactive color pigments
  • Helps locate the post and identify the post size: At body temperature (37 °C), posts are barely visible - after cooling (< 29 °C) post and post sizes are clearly visible.

The right fit:

The Double Taper feature is available in four sizes – usually the posts fit the treated canal right out of the box.

Watch-outs when placing a post

1) Is a post really needed?

In endodontically treated teeth with more than one missing dentin wall, there is a need to place a post to ensure the retention of the coronal structure (see image below).

2) Important things to consider for the post placement

  • The high variety of the endodontic morphology calls for posts that fit to the shape of the prepared canal while
  • ensuring to prepare the root canal for the post placement by preserving as much dentin as possible.
