English term or phrase: bonded post crown
This is a UK dental report following a car accident and I am translating for Spain. It goes like this:
"UR2 fractured at gum level. This tooth would need a bonded post crown to restore the tooth."

Spanish translation:perno-muñon y corona
Explanation:
¿Qué es un perno-muñón?
Se le conoce con este nombre, a una estructura metálica en una sola pieza, hecha a medida, para ser alojada definitivamente dentro de la raíz del diente/muela (perno), mediante fricción y cementado (no atornillado), sobresaliendo en forma de muñón y sirviendo de fijación intermedia para retener una corona que devuelva la anatomía y función a una pieza dental que estaba destruida o debilitada, y a la cual se le había practicado previamente una endodoncia.

What is a Post Crown?
A post crown is a combination of a post (that extends down into the root canal of your tooth) and a dental crown.

There is actually a third element called the 'core'. So sometimes, you will hear it referred to as a post and core, and crown- as generally this is how the components are split up when the dentist makes up your bill.

There are always these three elements, it's just that sometimes the core is incorporated into the post (custom made) and at other times, it is built up on top of the post, in filling material. This happens after the post has been cemented. The latter is much more common nowadays.

A post crown always requires a root canal to have been completed before it can be carried out. That's because the post extends deep down into the root canal of the tooth in order to get extra grip for the core.

This is unlike a pin, which simply screws a couple of millimetres into the dentine of the tooth to help hold a filling.
