Dental Fiber post - Atra POST

Composite posts are used in dentistry to strengthen the structure of teeth that have undergone endodontics treatment.

After denervation and evacuation and preparation of the root canal the composite posts are inserted into the canal with adhesive cements and form the basis for placing the dental veneer or making the tooth with a

Restorative composite.

Atrak Polymer Tech Co. has marketed its composite fiberglass posts under the brand name of Atra Post.

Atra Post is composed of an epoxy polymer matrix as well as reinforcing glass-fibers. In these post, the glass fibers are stretched longitudinally through the pultrusion process.

Atra Post also includes a stainless steel filament to provide better visibility in the radiographic images.

Atra Post is available in 5 size

Important points

  • Be careful in preparing the post space to prevent unwanted weakening of the dentin structure and tooth roots.
  • To provide sufficient retention in the post and core fabrication, it is desirable that the post descends at least two-thirds of the length of root canal.
  • It is recommended to keep at least 3 to 5mm of root filling in the apical part to have a proper seal.
  • Cut the Atra Post with a dental drill under running water. Do not use scissors or pliers for cutting.
  • Use a mask and glasses (goggles) to prevent particles from being inhaled and entering the eyes during cutting.
  • It is not necessary to keep Atra Post in the refrigerator
