D.T. LIGHT-POST® REMOVAL KIT


INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

The D.T. LIGHT-POST REMOVAL KIT has been specially designed to aid in the removal of the D.T. LIGHT-POST. The removal drill has the same dimensions as the #1 D.T. POST drill, but with a different cutting edge. By properly centering the removal drill on the post, you should be able to remove the #1 D.T. POST. The removal of the post is achieved by hollowing the post from the inside out.

To Remove the #2 or #3 D.T. LIGHT-POST:
After working the removal drill to the full length of the post, the central core of the post will have been removed, leaving a hollowed shell. The remaining post can be removed by using the corresponding #2 or #3 D.T. LIGHT-POST drills.

1. Expose the coronal end of the post with a tungsten carbide bur. (This bur is not supplied) With the aid of a radiograph, determine the length of the post to be removed.

2. Create a pilot hole in the center of the post with the pin pilot drill or with a small round diamond bur. Use the pilot drill for its entire cutting length as this will aid in centering and guiding the removal drill.

3. Begin with the removal drill and use intermittent pressure to drill out the post. Frequent ventilation is necessary to avoid clogging the flutes and
to avoid over-heating the drill which may weaken the metal and may lead to fracture of the drill.

  • Follow the long axis of the post.
  • Drill under water spray to reduce heat build-up.
  • Optimum speed is 800-2000 rpm.

4. When removing #2 or #3 D.T. POSTS, begin with the removal drill and continue with the D.T. #2 or #3 drills, respectively and as necessary.

CAUTION: To prevent corrosion, do not use Hydrogen Peroxide (H2O22) for disinfection of the removal drill (Tungsten Carbide).
Please follow instructions of the disinfectant solution selected.
