Abstract

Most of the teeth can be restored using amalgam or composites. But when the preparation size is very big due to caries or other reason and the remaining tooth structure is very less, it becomes difficult to achieve optimal resistance and retention form. In these cases, pins support the restorative materials and resist their dislodgement in severely damaged teeth. “A pin retained restoration is defined as any restoration which requires the placement of pin/pins in the dentin in order to provide sufficient retention and resistance form to the restoration.”
