Abstract
This chapter will emphasise the need to:
-
Provide a provisional restoration following tooth preparation to protect the pulp; secure positional stability, function and aesthetics; and maintain gingival health
-
Consider using long-term provisional restorations to assess aesthetic, occlusal and periodontal changes before embarking on definitive restorations
-
Distinguish between preparations for conventional and adhesive restorations when providing provisional restorations
-
Determine in advance the type of provisional restorations and materials to be used, ideally, whilst treatment planning
-
Be aware of materials for making provisional restorations and how to control potential hazards
-
Make provisional restorations to a high standard to ensure a predictable restorative outcome
