“…In some cases, a fiber post must be removed to reaccess to the apical part of the root canal for nonsurgical endodontic retreatment (Anderson, Perdigao, Hodges, & Bowles, ). A survey in the United States showed that many general dental practioners believe that post removal frequently results in fractures and perforation of the roots (Stamos & Gutmann, ). However, when appropriate devices and techniques are selected, it is possible to remove the posts successfully (Abbott, ).…”

The aim of this in vitro study was to compare the efficacies of two different fiber post‐removal systems. Thirty extracted single‐rooted mandibular premolar teeth were used. After RelyX fiber posts were cemented, the teeth were divided into two groups with regard to the post removal techniques: ultrasonic vibration and D.T. Light‐Post removal kit. Residual material, tooth volume changes, working time and micro‐crack formation were assessed using micro‐computed tomography. All data were analyzed using Wilcoxon signed‐rank and Mann–Whitney U tests. There was significantly more tooth root volume change in the ultrasonic group than removal kit group (p < .05). Fiber post removal time for the ultrasonic group was significantly longer than the removal kit group (p < .01).

“…This is needed to flare the walls of a troughing groove in an axial direction. difficulties of removing posts without weakening, perforating, or fracturing the remaining root structure (85)(86)(87)(88). Many techniques and instruments have been described to aid in the removal of posts (52, 85, 88 -94).…”

“…Therefore, post removal requires special care and techniques to prevent root fracture or perforation. A number of techniques and instruments have been recommended for post removal, such as a post extractor (2,3), a post puller (4), a Gonon postpulling system (5,6), the Masserann technique (7), hemostats (8) and burs to drill the post. These methods and procedures, although effective in removing intraradicular posts, may occasionally fracture the root, remove too much dental structure, or perforate the root.…”

Efficacy of ultrasound in removal of intraradicular posts using different techniques

The efficacy of ultrasound in removing cast metal posts was evaluated in this in vitro study using one or two ultrasound units and ultrasonic vibration for various lengths of time. The crowns of 30 healthy maxillary canines were removed, the roots were embedded in acrylic resin blocks, and the root canals were treated endodontically. The canals were prepared and their impressions were taken with self-curing acrylic resin. After casting with copper-aluminum alloy, the posts were blasted with aluminum oxide and cemented with Panavia F resin cement. The specimens were divided into five groups. In groups I and II, only one ultrasound unit was used for 30 and 60 s, respectively; in groups III and IV, two ultrasound units were used simultaneously for 30 and 60 s, respectively; in group V, ultrasound was not used (control). Ultrasonic vibrations were applied with an Enac OE-5 ultrasound unit and an ST-09 tip. All samples were subjected to traction on an Instron machine (model 4444) at a crosshead speed of 1 mm/min. Analysis of the results revealed a statistically significant difference between the groups (ANOVA, P < 0.01); however the difference between groups II and IV was not statistically significant. The efficacy of ultrasound in removing intraradicular posts was confirmed, and the most effective technique was the use of two ultrasound units, independent of the length of time ultrasound was applied.
