What is a stump tab

A stump inlay in dentistry is a pin structure used for prosthetic purposes when it is impossible to restore the natural tissues of the coronal part of the tooth. The inlay is attached to the root part, protruding onto the visible surface of the tooth, forming a support for the artificial crown. The main condition for its use is the ideal health of the tissues and roots surrounding the unit. The stump tab, in contrast to the anchor pin, intended only to strengthen the tooth, consists of two parts: the lower one, installed in the canal, and the upper one, which gives the tooth its shape. The system rests on the surface of the tooth being restored and is able to evenly distribute the load on the root.

Principles of preparation for lithium disilicate structures

Up to 95% of lithium disilicate restorations (IPS E.max CAD/Press, Ivoclar Vivadent) in the posterior region demonstrate an optimal level of clinical effectiveness in the long term, making them one of the best choices for replacing defects in enamel and dentin structure. IPS E.max is a universal material that, in addition to excellent strength and resistance to fracture, also provides amazing aesthetic rehabilitation results: it can therefore be used equally successfully in both the anterior and posterior areas of the jaw in the form of complete or partial restorations . IPS E.max restorations can be cemented using both an adhesive protocol and composite cements. But it should be taken into account that the manufacture of this type of crowns and onlays requires the use of special preparation techniques, as well as adapted instruments developed specifically for such clinical purposes.

In the practice of a dentist, the formation of special sets of burs for a specific type of work helps to significantly save the time of a clinical appointment and reduces the likelihood of a possible risk of failure at the preparation stage. The sequence of burs in the physician-designed kit should correspond to the sequence of burs used during the clinical procedure. If a bur can be reused, it should be carefully sterilized and returned to its original work place, and tools that are not suitable for reuse should be discarded immediately - this way, there will never be any confusion about whether a particular bur is suitable for use. this manipulation, or is it from some other kit?

Preparation stage

The new system for the preparation stage under IPS E.max (IPS E.max Restorative Preparation System) (photo 1), presented by Durabraze Diamonds, is equipped with all the necessary burs for preparing the core for any type of lithium disilicate restoration IPS E.max. Durabraze diamond burs are designed to provide the most adequate tissue removal, increase the cutting ability of the tool and, if possible, extend its service life.

Preparation of chewing teeth for complete restorations is carried out with the formation of a ledge similar to a modified shoulder (with a rounded internal corner) and the deliberate removal of tissue from the occlusal surface by 1.5 mm, from the axial walls by 1 mm, and by 1.5 mm in the center area stump and upper occlusal third of the axial walls (photo 2). To create preparation grooves on the occlusal surface and in the cusp area, it is convenient to use WDL1.5 burs (photo 3).

Photo 2. Preparation for full crowns.

Photo 3. Marking grooves on the occlusal surface.

Peter Brasseler coarse 016 diamond burs (845KR) are used to remove tissue from the occlusal side to the level of the guide grooves; the same burs are used to form guide grooves on the buccal and lingual sides of the axial walls, prepare proximal surfaces and create an adequate gingival margin (photo 4).

Photo 4. Marking burs in the area of ​​the axial walls.

The level of preparation from the occlusal surface should be checked not only visually, but also using a silicone bite key obtained before starting the preparation procedure. After performing the above procedures, the surface of the stump is polished and the formed edges are rounded using a fine diamond polishing bur BR8847KR. The polished preparation surface improves the accuracy of traditional and digital impressions and thus results in more accurate and precise final restorations.

To prepare for onlay-type inlays in the area of ​​chewing teeth, the same principles and tools are used as for preparing the stump for full crowns (photos 5 - 6). In cases where the abutment tooth has a low clinical crown or the patient is unable to open the mouth wide, the dentist can successfully use the 845KR 016 bur to form a modified ledge and adequate tissue reduction. The area of ​​each cusp that will be covered with an onlay should be reduced by 1. 5 mm from the chewing surface, by 1 mm in the area of ​​the gingival margin, and by 1.5 mm in the area of ​​the middle and upper third of the stump. In cases of indications for the manufacture of inlays of the inlay type, the doctor must create a sufficient cavity depth of at least 1 mm, and a corresponding width of 1 to 1.5 mm. The WDL1.0 bur can be used to create guide grooves from the occlusal surface, and the gingival area is reduced by approximately 1.0 mm to create an adequate shoulder size. As with all ceramic restorations, all edges and internal corners must be smoothed and polished.

The Brasseler IPS E.max preparation system is ideal for preparing the anterior tooth area for esthetic restorations. It is equipped with a range of RWEXT, RWCONV and RWMIN burs designed to form guide grooves into the vestibular sides of the tooth. When making full crowns in the frontal area, the reduction of hard tissues from the cutting edge should be carried out by 1.5 mm, on the front side - by 1.2 mm, and by 1 mm in the area of ​​the gingival edge (photo 7). The RWDL1.5 bur is ideal for forming guide grooves from the cutting edge (photo 8), after which the RWEXT bur can be used to form grooves in the middle third of the stump, positioning it parallel to the plane of the cutting edge.

Photo 8. Marking grooves in the area of ​​the incisal edge.

The RWEXT bur is also suitable for creating guide grooves at the gingival margin and should be positioned parallel to the gingival third of the tooth. The cutting end of this unique instrument can also be used to create a deep chamfer-type shoulder in the subgingival area if deemed clinically appropriate by the dentist. Considering the shape of the central teeth, adequate tissue reduction from the vestibular surface is a rather difficult clinical task (photo 9). To form a marking groove, you can successfully use the RWDL1.0 bur, which provides a groove with a depth of exactly 1 mm. The preparation on the proximal and vestibular sides is completed using a BR6847KR diamond bur, and on the lingual side with a BR6379.023 diamond bur. After preparation, the stump is smoothed and polished using a BR8847KR bur.

The preparation algorithm for IPS E.max veneers is unique (photo 10), which depends on aesthetic parameters and conditions for performing the restoration, color and structural features of problem teeth.

Photo 10. Preparation for veneers.

Tissue reduction on the vestibular side can vary from 0.3 to 0.8 mm at the gingival margin. The minimum volume of preparation ensures the formation of a sufficient area of ​​enamel suitable for the stage of fixation of aesthetic restoration. On the other hand, increasing the depth of preparation provides opportunities for better aesthetic correction of the smile, but negatively affects the retention rates of the structure. Veneers in the frontal area can be limited only to the vestibular surfaces of the teeth, but in some cases they can also extend into the area of ​​contact surfaces (photo 11).

Photo 11. Preparation for veneers.

The amount of preparation of contact surfaces depends on the presence of interdental caries, class III restorations, or the patient’s desire to cover the “black triangles” in the anterior area. In this case, the contours of the preparation of the contact surfaces can also extend to the lingual side of the tooth, thus providing a better level of retention. The situation is similar with the cutting edge: it can either be covered with a veneer, or the restoration can end in the middle of the thickness of the cutting edge - it all depends on the decision of the dentist and the desire of the patient. If they want to visually lengthen a tooth, change the position or shape of the incisal edge, doctors can expand the contours of the preparation - technicians need to take into account the transparency of the incisal edge when applying enamel, as well as the need to imitate mamelons to maximize the imitation of the natural appearance of the restoration. In cases where the natural parameters of the cutting edge are optimal, the preparation profile reaches the middle of the structure, which is subsequently covered with veneer.

But, as practice shows, the production of veneers is often carried out to change the position of the teeth, the shape or position of the cutting edge, therefore, to ensure minimal tissue reduction and sufficient space for ceramics, the principle of direct modeling is used. The models are sent to the laboratory, where wax reproductions are made from them. To obtain a model from a wax reproduction, a silicone matrix is ​​used. The teeth are spot-etched, and the silicone matrix is ​​filled with bis-acrylic material, after which it is fitted to the patient’s teeth. After the bis-acrylic filler has completely hardened, the silicone matrix is ​​removed from the oral cavity, and its remains from the gingival margin are cleaned using a plastic instrument. Subsequently, preparation is carried out with control on a bis-acrylic model.

As for preparations for full crowns, a RWDL1.5 bur is used to form guide grooves in the incisal area. To create similar marking grooves on the labial side, different RWMIN, RWCONV or RWEXT burs can be used, depending on the required amount of preparation. Unlike preparation for crowns, when preparing a stump for veneers, you cannot simply remove hard tissue in an almost straight-line direction from the incisal edge to the gum area; preparation should be carried out in three different planes - incisal, median and gingival - relative to the vestibular surface of the tooth in order to preserve it natural curvature.

The final preparation is carried out with a modified 012 or 16 bur, depending on the amount of tissue reduction required. To ensure adequate aesthetic parameters, the preparation contour of the proximal surfaces in the gingival area should be more lingual than in the incisal area. As with other preparation algorithms, adapted finishing polishers are used to round teeth and polish surfaces. In order to avoid excessive additional uncontrolled tissue reduction during finishing processing, the author of the article suggests using the reverse torque of the rotary tool and a low speed (20,000 rpm) in order to be able to fully control the adequacy of the manipulation.

conclusions

Strict implementation of methodological preparation algorithms, as well as the use of adapted sets of burs, provide the most effective results in preparing teeth for different types of aesthetic restorations. Thus, this procedure becomes more predictable, accurate and accurate, which ensures the receipt of adequate orthopedic structures and saves the clinician’s time.

Manufacturing technology of the stump tab

1. The method of layering ceramics. After receiving the impressions, a refractory model is made, a ceramic pin is tightly installed in the channel, ceramic is applied to it, and firing is performed. In the process of applying ceramic layers, it is possible to choose different colors and shades of the material, dyes and modifiers.
2. Production of ceramics from tablet molds by pressing. An inlay is modeled from wax, and sprues are installed in the direction of the ceramic flow. Using a silicone ring, investment material is introduced and a limiter is placed. Pressing is carried out in an oven equipped with a microprocessor control system. The resulting product after pressing and casting is a solid single crystal, the abrasion of which is comparable to the natural abrasion of hard dental tissues.
3. Manufacturing using CAD/CAM method. Allows you to form prostheses and parts that match the implant, abutment, and the shape of the tooth stump. The unit is scanned in the mouth or on a model, 3D modeling is carried out using a special program, the information received is transferred to a milling machine, which mills the product under computer control. The method is precise and complex, requiring high costs for professional training of personnel to operate the equipment.
4. Injection molding method for manufacturing a stump insert. Casting a working model from plaster/polyurethane, selecting an ashless pin similar to the root canal, applying silicone varnish to the root. The pin is inserted into the canal and modeling is carried out with ashless plastic/wax. After a control check, the cast stump insert is removed and transferred to a metal casting. The method is technologically easy, low-cost, requires a minimum of material costs, but is very sensitive to the quality of casting. With strict adherence to all norms and rules, reliable and high-quality microprostheses are obtained.

Manufacturing methods

1. Straight. It is characterized by its low cost, ease of implementation, and does not require the presence of fire-resistant models or impression materials. With the direct protocol, the future core inlay is modeled in the oral cavity, and then dental laboratory specialists replace the wax with the working restoration material. Disadvantages: insufficient visibility of the surgical field, risks of thermal injuries to the mucous membrane, large time expenditure for the dentist.
2. Indirect (indirect). It is used for all types of defects; production takes place in two stages: obtaining an impression plus obtaining a model.

Ceramic tooth inlay: advantages and disadvantages of products

Currently, ceramic onlays are the most common method of restoring incisors, molars or premolars; they are recognized as reliable and durable. Unlike composite fillings, they are not made in the patient’s mouth, but in isolation, in a dental laboratory (using impressions). This allows you to create an anatomically correct tooth shape with increased accuracy. This factor is very important for the area of ​​​​contact with the adjacent incisor, molar or premolar. The use of ceramic inlays makes it possible not to resort to crowns if the root bases of the teeth are intact. The main advantages of the products include:

• high aesthetic qualities. Ceramic onlays are no different from natural molars or premolars. The material fully matches their visual characteristics. Only a specialist can notice the difference upon careful close examination;
• durability (compared to a conventional filling). If you follow all the recommendations prescribed by your doctor, the orthopedic design can last more than 10 years. For comparison, a regular filling lasts about 3-4 years;
• no changes in appearance. Ceramics do not darken over the course of a year, so the original color remains intact for the entire duration of wear. It is completely resistant to dyes and other external factors;
• no shrinkage and polymerization after fastening. The main factor influencing the development of secondary carious lesions is pathogenic microorganisms that enter the gap between dentin and filling material. It occurs as a result of shrinkage of the filling. Under the influence of ultraviolet radiation, the filling significantly decreases in volume and sags. e max structures retain their dimensions and do not change during the manufacturing and installation process. Their grinding occurs at the same time as the tooth tissues;
• complete safety. The material does not have a negative effect on the human body and does not provoke the development of allergic reactions;
• high strength. Unlike conventional fillings (light, chemical), the inlay is more securely fixed and is characterized by increased resistance to mechanical and thermal stress.

The emax ceramic inlay has no significant disadvantages. Some are confused by the time spent on manufacturing and installing orthopedic structures, which, unlike conventional fillings, require several visits to the dentist's office. Relative disadvantages include the high price (compared to inlays made of other metals). It is worth noting that their quality, aesthetics and long service life justify their relatively high cost.

Indications for installation

• destruction of the crown part of the tooth;
• periodontal diseases (splinting);
• defects in the shape, position of the unit, supragingival area;
• There is no way to put a pin with a filling. For example, if the chewing teeth are destroyed.

Contraindications for installing a post-core restoration on a pin

: caries, cysts, damage or absence of roots, gum disease, periodontal disease, pathological mobility of the dentition, allergies to the alloys from which the structure is made.

We offer

:

• single crowns;
• veneers, lumineers;
• bridge-like devices;
• implant-supported restoration;
• systems with stump pin system.

How are tabs used?

• in the form of an independent design that allows you to restore the shape, function and aesthetics of previously unsuitable crowns with IROPS indicators of 0.3–0.6, that is, in the presence of: caries, if filling turns out to be ineffective or cannot be performed;
• tissue damage of a non-carious nature, for example, with wedge-shaped defects or with increased abrasion.

Advantages of stump inlays

Compared to other post systems, the stump post is much stronger. The inlay distributes the load more evenly and fits tightly to the remaining teeth, which prevents the formation of cracks and the development of caries.

Other advantages include the possibility

:

• regenerate destroyed/lost units;
• support natural teeth with bulk fillings;
• remove increased abrasion of tooth enamel;
• restore anatomical form/functionality;
• align curvature, maintain aesthetics;
• make prosthetics on implants.

Are there any contraindications to the use of stump pins?

Unfortunately, not in all cases, stump pin inlays can be used for dental prosthetics.

Stump inlays should not be used under the following circumstances:

• When a tooth is destroyed below the gum level;
• When the quality of root canal filling is poor. In this case, it is necessary to unseal the canals, reprocess and seal them, and only then install a pin stump inlay and crown;
• A contraindication to the use of a pin stump insert would be an inflammatory process in the area of ​​the tooth root;
• Allergy to the materials used to make the stump inlay on the pin.

Also, inlays are not placed on loose and mobile teeth.

IMPORTANT: In some cases, a stump pin can still be installed even if the tooth is destroyed below the gum level. But this will first require an additional operation - an osteotomy. The essence of this operation is to cut down the bone tissue to such an extent that the gum is below the destroyed tooth.

Comparison with classic pins

Standard pins - pros:

• gentle tissue preparation;
• the ability to conduct therapy in one session;
• low price.

Minuses:

• the coronal and intraradicular segments of the restoration may become separated because there is no chemical bond between them;
• in the case of active rods, there is a risk of a wedging effect during the screwing process;
• the absence of a base in the structure leads to a sharp increase in the propping load on the root during operation;

Pros:

• the stump and the pin are cast from identical material and connected, which 100% eliminates the possibility of their separation;
• slight wedging effect during cementation of the stump inlay;
• minimizing disjoining pressure, since the chewing load is transferred to the walls of the root, along its axis, to the rod.

Stump pin inlays can be used when the destruction index of the occlusal surface of a unit is more than 60-100% (standard pins - 50-60%). Such inlays are durable and guarantee the reliability of the structure.

Our dentistry offers installation of several types of core microprostheses

:

• serve within 5-25 years;
• reliability of crown fixation;
• excellent strength;
• simplification of subsequent fastening of bridges;
• the ability to work with any degree of destruction, restoration of bite;
• lack of access for pathogens. No inflammatory processes;
• simple replacement of the prosthesis if necessary.

Why are core inlays better than fillings and pins?

Fillings and pins are only applicable if the tooth has a sufficient amount of healthy tissue remaining. If only the root or thin walls of the tooth remain, then it cannot be restored with a pin, since such a restoration method will not be distinguished by either quality or reliability.

Firstly, under load, the pin can break and in the process damage the tooth root. Trauma to the root of a tooth is a direct indication for its removal; no methods for damaging the root system will help you save your tooth.

Secondly, dentures installed on large fillings and pins most often fall out some time after prosthetics. In this case, the treatment will have to be carried out again, and this implies new and significant financial costs.

IMPORTANT: Some dentists try to fix the fallen crown and pin with cement. But this is useless: the structure will not hold firmly, and in addition, an inflammatory process may begin under it, leading to rotting and destruction of the tooth.

Therefore, in case of severe tooth decay, only a stump inlay can provide high-quality and durable prosthetic results.

Classification of stump inlays

Important

: It is desirable that the materials of the pin and crown parts of the core structure coincide. For example, if the core inlay is metal and the crown is ceramic, then the metal will be translucent.

Composition and application of microprosthesis

Compound

The prosthetic structure consists of a pin part that completely follows the shape of the root canal, and a stump that imitates the crown being restored. Most often, stump inlays are made from various metal alloys through precision casting. However, zirconium or aluminum oxide can also be used to produce prostheses.

Application

Standard cast pins are used to create tooth stumps with pronounced destruction of their supragingival part and the presence of healthy, strong roots. In this case, the tab is tightly fixed in the root canal so that its stump part protrudes above the gum. The stump can be used as a support for crowns, splinting structures, removable and fixed dentures.

In modern dental practice, collapsible and non-removable stump inlays are used.

Non-removable structures are used to restore teeth with one root, and collapsible ones are used to create tooth stumps with two or more roots.

Multi-channel and single-channel tabs

When treating a multi-rooted tooth, the doctor must make a decision: to make a collapsible or solid-cast core microprosthesis. If the root canals run parallel, solid blanks are used. Before choosing one of the various options for inlays, the patient is diagnosed - they take pictures and CT scans. Computed tomography helps to visualize the condition of the root segment, the configuration of the canals, and the presence of bone and periodontal diseases that require treatment. A multi-root microprosthesis is a good option because it creates uniform pressure on the entire tooth while being held in several canals at the same time. A crown with such a base can be used to mount a bridge restoration without the risk of destroying or damaging the tooth.

Requirements of orthopedic dentistry for the use of core inlays:

• the root canal must have good patency over a length identical to the length of the pin;
• absence of purulent-inflammatory processes in the root zone;
• the walls must be of sufficient thickness (2 mm or more) to resist the chewing load transmitted through the stump structure, the protruding area must not be affected by caries;
• the stump should not be covered by the gum, otherwise gingivectomy is indicated;
• apical tissues should not have manifestations of chronic/acute inflammation.

Features of preparation in children

Preparation of primary primary teeth in children is a serious problem in dentistry. Young patients are the most difficult group among dental office visitors due to the high prevalence of phobia of the sound and sight of a rotating drill. In addition, baby teeth have a number of anatomical features that do not allow “adult” manipulations.

Therefore, doctors are looking for alternative methods for preparing teeth for caries in childhood.

The most promising method in this case is considered to be chemical preparation, which does not cause negative sensations even in the smallest children, but at the same time allows for sufficient quality treatment of the carious cavity.

Stages of manufacturing and installation of dental prostheses

We work in several stages

:

1. Preparation. We remove the carious area, perform a filling, take an x-ray for verification, and form a cavity.
2. We unseal the roots by half or one third, giving them a taper and width. It is also important to choose the optimal tab option.
3. We take an impression of both jaws and cast it from plaster in a dental laboratory. It is important that the microprosthesis corresponds to the antagonist organ.
4. We scan the cavity and carry out modeling on a computer.
5. We send the task to an automated milling machine, which produces the product.
6. We burn the workpiece in a special oven.
7. We treat the area with an antiseptic and fix the fat-free microprosthesis with cement.
8. Trying on and selecting a crown, installing a finished core inlay.

Complications and errors

Errors in the manufacture of core inlays are divided into two groups: those associated with the work of the orthopedic dentist and the actions of the dental technician.

Clinical:

• unsealing of the canal to an unsatisfactory amount;
• root perforation during teeth grinding;
• giving an inadequate shape to the channel, which can lead to de-cementing of the structure;
• errors when taking impressions.

Laboratory:

• poor-quality casting when using the casting method;
• non-compliance with processing standards during the pressing method;
• violation of the firing regime when applying ceramic layers.

Quality criteria for core restoration: high aesthetic level, reliable fixation, long service life, uniform distribution of pressure when pressed.

Hygienic oral care

After installing the microprosthesis, 10-14 days pass before fixing the bridge or crown. During this period, the prosthesis requires special careful care:

• chewing food with the opposite side of the jaw;
• exclude solid foods;
• teeth are brushed as standard;
• The oral cavity is rinsed with an antiseptic solution after each meal;
• the gums are treated with an anti-inflammatory agent.

Stump inlays do not require specific care. It is enough to regularly brush your teeth, undergo an examination by a doctor, and undergo a professional sanitation procedure. To clean crowns, it is recommended to use soft brushes, dental floss, and special brushes. With proper care and following the recommendations of dentists, the stump insert will serve you for many years.

How does an inlay differ from a filling?

The filling is made of a plastic material that hardens and takes the desired shape. It is made and installed right in the dentist's office in one appointment. However, a filling will not help when the tooth is severely damaged. In this case, you will need a ceramic inlay. It is made in the laboratory using an individual impression. It not only closes the resulting cavity, but also exactly repeats the shape of the destroyed area of ​​the crown.

Advantages over fillings:

• Higher efficiency
  . It is possible to restore a severely damaged tooth. A filling is suitable only if the cavity occupies less than a quarter of the crown, and an inlay can restore from 25 to 60%;
• Naturalness
  . The inlay imitates the anatomical shape of the chewing surface. It is almost invisible, while the filling can be seen;
• Higher strength
  . Microprostheses do not develop cracks. A filling of this size would quickly crumble, so it is not suitable for restoring extensive damage;
• Durability
  . The tab will last 5–7 years. At the same time, it will remain unchanged and will not lose its original characteristics;
• Ensuring the prevention of secondary caries
  . Sometimes the filling can become infected again. The insert fits very tightly and does not shrink over time, so this risk is eliminated;
• Color fastness
  . The fillings have a porous structure, so they are easily stained by tea, coffee, and tobacco. Ceramics are not subject to color changes.

Flaws:

• They cost more;
• They take longer to produce. The filling can be placed in one visit to the dentist. And to install the tab, you will need 2 visits with a break for the manufacture of a microprosthesis in the laboratory.

What to choose when doing prosthetics - restoring a tooth with a core tab or a filling?

What to choose when installing a crown - restoring a tooth with a core inlay or a filling? This question is often asked to doctors by patients who decide to restore their teeth. This question can be answered this way: if your tooth is badly damaged, and you want the installed crown to serve you for as long as possible, it is better to choose not a filling, but a stump inlay.

Yes, prosthetics with a stump inlay will be more expensive than installing a crown on a regular filling, but all costs will be repaid by the long useful life of the prosthesis and the high quality of the prosthetics. Stump inlays allow you to save and successfully restore even the most hopeless teeth!
