Product Overview
FILPIN is to be considered whenever core build-up is used and less than one half of a coronal tooth structure remaining.
Bonding alone is not sufficient in many situations were minimal tooth structure is present. Pins provide anti-rotational benefit when a single post is used.
FILPIN, designed engineered to make placement easier, faster, safer, stronger. The shaft is pure titanium, biocompatible, compatible with all dental materials and will not corrode. The self-threading, self-aligning pin speeds and eases placement for self-shearing first time, every time once optimum depth is reached. After insertion FILPIN can be easily bent to suit the restoration without breaking it or the tooth. A unique thread design maximizes retention strength without causing internal stresses that may lead to cracking or crazing.

HOW TO USE FILPIN:
Step 1
Latch the correct sized drill head (for your chosen size of FILPIN) onto a slow-spreed handpiece and make a pilot hole up to the drill's self-limiting depth of 2mm. Repeat as necessary. NB: Ensure the pilot hole is drilled at a speed of 1500rpm or less.
Step 2
Latch a FILPIN onto the handpiece and insert into the hole - hardly any pressure is needed to encourage the pin to insert. Once the correct depth of 2mm is reached, FILPIN will self-shear at exactly the right point. Repeat as necessary. NB: Ensure the pin is inserted at a speed of 1000rpm or less.
STEP 3
If required, bend the protruding pin/s to suit the restoration. Final build up of the restoration can now take place.
STEP 4
The Final restoration.
