Rebilda Post GT is a radiopaque, translucent, glass fibre-reinforced composite root post which exhibits dentine-like elasticity and ensures a considerably stronger bond to the core build-up than is achieved by conventional root posts. Unlike other post systems, Rebilda Post GT consists of a cluster of fine individual posts which are initially held together by a sleeve and thus can be inserted into the root canal in one working step.

Rebilda Post GT allows a customised and at the same time substance-preserving restoration, as the fine individual posts can be distributed throughout the entire root canal following removal of the sleeve and then adapt optimally to the respective root canal morphology. Root canal enlargement with a drill for a correspondingly sized post is thus not necessary, meaning that no additional tooth substance is lost, which would inevitably result in weakening of the root structure. Its unique composition makes Rebilda Post GT particularly suitable for use in non-round root canals and in root canals prepared using a larger cone in the greater taper technique, from which the 'GT' in the product name is derived.

Following pre-treatment of the root canal, the cluster of posts is silanised, coated with luting composite and then inserted into the root canal filled with luting composite. Prior to polymerisation of the luting composite, the sleeve is removed, so that the individual posts can be fanned out throughout the canal using a suitable instrument. This spreading out of the posts leads to both homogeneous reinforcement of the luting composite throughout the length of the root canal and an increase of the contact surface with the build-up composite in the coronal region, which results in a high degree of stability for the post/build-up system overall.

Rebilda Post GT is available in four colour-coded sizes: No. 4 (blue, idealised diameter of 0.8 mm) containing 4, No. 6 (red, idealised diameter of 1.0 mm) containing 6, No. 9 (green, idealised diameter of 1.2 mm) containing 9 and No. 12 (black, idealised diameter of 1.4 mm) containing 12 individual posts.
