To put a pin - to save a tooth A pin can be compared to a crutch or a prosthesis, it is an artificial support for the upper part of the tooth, a rod that is fixed in the root canal. Most often, pins are made of titanium alloy - this is a unique metal that is biocompatible with the tissues of the body, so it does not cause rejection. In addition, the material is very strong: aircraft landing gear struts are made of titanium, so the metal pin copes with the chewing load without any problems. After installing the pin, the dentist only has to build up the upper part of the tooth with the help of composite or other materials. #DENTIST https://image.nostr.build/9e2e2ab210f7ffb01f9ffa63be3109f2a3391367ecec10343fd26b9595ad06d3.jpg
