We have evaluated several generations of RTD fiber posts in the clinic over hundred of patients in very varying situations. They have exceeded our expectations !
The Macro-Lock Post, is an advanced fiber post designed for maximum retention, with any type of cementation or resin build-up. The post has a tapered apical segment, and a parallel coronal section.
In addition, the surface of the post is roughened with controlled specificity to a highly micro-mechanical surface for excellent bonding and long-term retention.
Available in six sizes, the post is designed with a series of serrations and passive threading cut into the surface, to provide self-retention regardless of the cementation media used. It is provided for dentists not completely comfortable with the total-etch / moist bonding materials & techniques, or dentists who would prefer to use glass ionomer cements with resin core materials. Independent research shows retentive strength previously unattained.

With this newest radiopaque, translucent quartz fiber technology, I reach for the Macro-Lock whenever I have minimal useable tooth structure.
