Improve the Strength & L ongevity of Restorations with the Dental
Glass Pin
The Dental Glass Pin mechanically and chemically anchors a tooth to the restoration with custom fiber optic pin It works with any existing composite resin or adhesive, as well as any light-curing method currently used by dentists to repair a broken tooth that allow it to bond with the tooth’s enamel and/ or dentin, and to any adhesive restorative system to repair the tooth .
Almost 13 years ago, Ellis started to evaluate the ways to repair an anterior chip . Traditional solutions include making grooves, channels, pits, and using titanium pins in adhesive restorations . The best restoration has both chemical and mechanical properties, he said, but the difficulty with anterior teeth is that all adhesives have great compressional strength but poor sheer resistance To anchor the filling to the tooth, the stress must change to compressional forces with mechanical retention .
Ellis began by assessing the molecular structure of the tooth and all associated anatomy and realized a device that would have similar properties of the tooth would work best .
This solution eliminates or postpones the use of traditional crowns, caps, or titanium pins, and it works with any composite products that dentists are already using, Ellis said .
The Dental Glass Pin can be used in the anterior and the posterior of the mouth It provides a virtually invisible solution for both small and large dental fractures
“Using the glass pin, I have experienced that fillings stay in place . I have used this product in the posterior and have had equally good results . As a dentist, I can make permanent restorations with long-term predictable results in the anterior and posterior,” Ellis said
“My glass pin works with all curing lights and restoration systems It is very easy to use with no additional training required Insurance pays for this procedure #D2951 . ”
