In the case of tangential the tooth was abrade in a straight line in which case the border seal of the crown there is a stair. In these areas the plaque adheres easily, hard to clean it, easier under decaying the tooth. By the modern shoulder preparation we make a small shoulder around the tooth on which the crown fits very precise, thus it doesn’t desist. Such retention is minimal where the plaque can adhere. Easier to clean, the crown’s or the fixed partial denture’s lifetime is longer.
The correct color selection is the determinant factor to achieve the most optimal, similar to the natural restoration. Thus the color and form are a very decisive factor of the designing. The ceramic fixed partial denture and in the case of the ceramic veneering crown a wide range of tooth colors are available, because the versatility of the ceramics allows to make almost confusingly natural looking restorations.
The purpose of preparation:
- ensure space for the veneer
- clear separation of the surfaces
- periodontal protection
- crown support
- perfect edge closure
Advantages:
- preserve the health of gum and periodontal
- no gray gum
- accurate edge closure
- the metal edge will be not visible
- the original shape of tooth can be restored
- the gingivitis and gingival recession can be avoided
Materials:
- metal-ceramic crown
- gold crown
- full porcelain crown
- zirconium crown (metal free)
