Prime-Dental i-post is used in one of the important stages in endodontic therapy i.e. is to restore the tooth with a stable restoration for mastication and aesthetic purpose. Post & core helps to restore the tooth to normal anatomy. Every tooth which is endodontically treated need not be treated with a post. The main function of the post is to give retention to the core. It does not strengthen the tooth. Whenever a clinician feels that coronal filling is not having sufficient retention, one can opt for the post. There is no clear-cut clinical guideline to decide the indication for the post. But many times more than approx 30% to 40% destruction needs a post.

For the convenience, follow these guidelines while using i-Post :-

Achieve coronal seal: – as early as possible. (within 1 to 3 months).
Ferrule effect is mandatory – for resistance and retention form.
Crown margins should end 1 to 2 mm below the core material or on a sound tooth/root structure.
Passive, parallel design is the best.
Threaded–tapered design is disastrous.
Cast posts are the best but the procedure is technique sensitive & dependent on impression procedure and laboratory.
Post which compensates the anatomical coronal flare is recommended.
Amalgam could be the best alternative to improved composite resins in subgingival destruction.
Cementation of the post – post design / length is the key to success.
Luting cement can be zinc phosphate / flowable composite resins or dual cure cement.
Clinical success of the post depends on length, size, design & ferrule effect.

Indications Of i-Post :

Clinicians desire:- whenever coronal filling needs additional retention, one may decide to place a post.
One may decide according to the tooth structure available after removal of the entire carious lesion
One may decide after anticipating the amount of tooth structure that would be available after crown preparation.
Abutments of f.P.D. & r.P.D.S,
Mandibular Incisors
Teeth having cervical cavities
If the destruction of the tooth is more than 30% To 40%

Description

Specification

SIZE OF POST –

To select the size of post - select the size of peeso that fits without resistance.
Please check manually whether Peeso is making a full turn.
One may practically place the selected post on the radiograph of the indicated tooth to confirm the approximate size (at least 1mm of root dentin thickness should be available around the post)

LENGTH OF POST

Ideal post length must be more than 2/3rd the tooth length (more than the root length)
Measure tooth length i.e from cusp tip to root apex (W.L). Calculate 2/3rd of this length and add 2 mm
One should avoid to put a post in the apical 4mm of area. Post length = WL – 5mm
The post should end at 4mm below the bony crest in a periodontally compromised case

Packaging

1 x 10 i-post refills

Direction to use

Use peeso drill # 1 to remove the Gutta Percha.
Use peeso drill to see which peeso fits in the canal space and accordingly matching i–post is selected.
Peeso is taken till calculated post length in the canal.
Overused Peeso drills are not recommended for the preparation of postholes.
Try the post. Initially, it will be loose and the flare will be away from the
anatomic coronal flare.
Cut or trim the post using the airotor till the flare matches the anatomical
coronal flare. Cut the post till it becomes firm and steady. Take a radiograph
to confirm the length.
If the Post is too ‘tight’ in the canal then reduce the flare with the help of airotor.
Use any cementing material to cement the post e.g. - Zinc Phosphate or dual care cements.
Use opaquer to mask the metal if required.
Use any core build-up material (silver amalgam or contrast-coloured composite) and seal the coronal cavity.
Build the normal contacts and cuspal forms.

Question : Indications of #2,3,4,5 posts ?
Answer: The Prime Dental i Post Endodontic Metal Posts, specifically #2, #3, #4, and #5 posts, are indicated when the remaining coronal tooth structure does not provide adequate retention for the definitive restoration. The diameter of these posts increases from #2 to #5. You should select a post whose diameter matches that of the standard peeso reamers used to prepare the post space. For example, if the post space is prepared using a #2 peeso reamer, you should use a #2 post, and so on, ensuring a proper fit for the post in the tooth structure.

Question : How many posts in a package?
Answer: In a package of Prime Dental i Post Endodontic Metal Post Refills, there are 10 posts included.
