    Problems associated with fabrication of custom-cast posts with a plastic rod and autopolymerizing resin include voids in the pattern, locking of the pattern into undercuts, and resin fracture during removal of the pattern. This article describes a system for fabricating custom-cast posts with a thermoplastic resin to address these problems. The system consists of a plastic support rod and a thermoplastic resin. A custom post pattern can be quickly and easily produced by trimming the plastic rod, heating the resin either over a direct flame or in a low-temperature glue gun and seating it into a lubricated prepared canal. The resin flows well and thereby reduces voids. The resin is elastic enough to be removed from small undercuts without locking into the canal or fracturing.

    Another approach for achieving the advantages of custom made post and core is to Reline the fibre post with resin and luting it with a dual cure cement..
