BISCO’s TransLuma POSTS are constructed from unidirectional, pretensed, glass fibers bound in an epoxy resin matrix. This design produces a post with flexural strength exceeding that of metal posts but with a modulus of elasticity similar to that of dentin. The low modulus dissipates stress rather than transferring and concentrating stress in the residual root structures as seen with cast or prefabricated metal posts.
Due to its translucency, BISCO’s TransLuma POST offers excellent aesthetics for the final restoration without the use of additional masking agents. This post will intimately bond to the tooth structure and core build-up
composite while its tapered design respects morphology and conserves tooth structure.
