The AP system posts combine the advantages of individually produced posts with the fast and easy application of prefabricated posts.

ROCK HILL, South Carolina--KOMET USA, a leader in the production of precision rotary instruments for the dental industry, recently introduced its new anatomic root post system for the restoration of coronally destroyed anteriors, canines, and premolars.

The AP system posts combine the advantages of individually produced posts with the fast and easy application of prefabricated posts.

KOMET's AP System features a stepped radicular segment for maximum wall adaptation throughout the root canal. This permits good mechanical friction and distribution of force, and thus optimal retention in the root canal.

In addition, the AP system features coronal segments that are perfectly adapted to the specific type of tooth, corresponding exactly to the coronal and radicular anatomy. Finally, practitioners will save time and expense using the AP system, due to fewer steps required to prepare the post canal in the root.

KOMET USA offers a wide range of AP System root posts designed for specific applications and comprised of materials ideally suited for these applications. These include:

* Root posts specifically adapted to the anatomy of the different teeth
* Individually designed instruments for every root post design
* Introductory Kit containing all posts and instruments
