FROM ANGELUS, BRAZIL
Root canal posts were recommended for anchorage
of the core build-up and final coronal restoration.
Among the different types of posts available, glass
fiber reinforced posts (FRP) have been chosen for
use as a post material for aesthetic and reliable
restorations in current practice with high success
rates.
Recently, the Brazilian company Angelus developed
the fiberglass endodontic system called Splendor-
SAP, recommended to be used for any root canal
morphology.
The recommendation to use Splendor-SAP posts to
anchor core build-up and final coronal restoration is
based on the following 5 advantages:
   - Universal - unique size for narrow, medium and
wide canals
                                                                                              Splendor SAP
   - Adjustable depending on the shape of the canal
