Description
The T3-10 is a package of 10 titanium alloy posts in size #3. Titanium is often preferred over stainless steel for its superior biocompatibility and high strength-to-weight ratio. These posts are designed to provide a secure foundation for core build-up materials during single-visit dental procedures. The #3 size is one of the smaller diameters in the system, typically used for more narrow root canals.
Key Features
-
Parallel-Sided Shape: Provides consistent contact with the canal walls for maximum retention and even distribution of biting forces.
-
Titanium Alloy Construction: Offers excellent biocompatibility and high strength while being highly resistant to corrosion within the oral environment.
-
Serrated Surface: The shank of the post is textured with ridges to provide a strong mechanical bond with dental cements.
-
Vented Channel: A vertical groove runs down the side of the post to allow air and excess cement to escape, reducing the risk of root fracture from pressure.
-
Color-Coded Identification: Size #3 is color-coded (typically brown) to match the corresponding #3 safety drills for a precise, predictable fit.
-
0.036” (0.9mm) Diameter: Specifically sized for narrower canals, ensuring adequate tooth structure remains for strength.
-
Refill Pack: Provided in a pack of 10 (Manufacturer Code: T3-10) for convenient restocking of frequently used sizes.
