Removal Technique

Fiber posts are removable in minutes (Ref. #9 – 11). For best results use loupes or microscope.

  1. Gain access to the coronal end of the post.
  2. Create a pilot hole (1 mm deep) in the center of the post using a small round bur.
  3. Follow the long axis of the post with an LA Axxess #1 bur or a #2 or #3 Peezo Reamer. Use a pecking motion at 800 – 2000 rpm under water spray.
  4. After reaching the apical end of the post, remaining post structure can be removed with the same pecking technique using that size PeerlessPost drill.
*Use according to manufactuer’s instructions.
