French pioneer of fiber-reinforced composite posts — quartz-fiber DT Light-Post, cements, and post-and-core restorative systems.
RTD (Recherches Techniques Dentaires) is a French dental manufacturer founded in 1968 by Dr. Marc Reynaud and headquartered in Saint-Égrève, near Grenoble. RTD was the first company in the world to patent and commercialise the fiber-reinforced composite endodontic post, and remains a worldwide leader in the processing of quartz fibers and the production of FRC posts. The company is ISO 13485-certified, manages every step of manufacturing in-house, and operates as part of the Dentsply Sirona group.
The RTD portfolio is built around the post-and-core restorative workflow: the flagship D.T. Light-Post range (including the color-changing Illusion X-RO), MatchPost and matching drills, plus reinforcement splinting fibers and dedicated luting and core build-up resin-composites.
RTD complements DMS’s premium endodontic brands (VDW, Kerr Endo) at the working-volume price tier. The result is a tiered endo catalog where Lebanese clinics can match instrumentation quality to case complexity without forcing every case onto the most expensive file system. DMS imports the active RTD range with Beirut stock.
