Abstract

Indirect non-metal restorations restore the function and esthetics of severely carious or broken teeth.  This report explores a novel approach for the impression, model fabrication and provisionalization of a pin reinforced onlay (pinlay) preparation.A dentoform molar was prepared for a pinlay indirect restoration. An impression, model and a provisional were fabricated with the employed pins and determined to be clinically acceptable. The pinlay may offer the patient and clinician another treatment option for oral rehabilitation.
