CE: More Than Just a Temporary Solution, Precise Provisionals Are the Key to Final Restorations
Zachary S. Sisler, DDS
This article outlines a verification process of provisional restorations in order to obtain appropriate esthetics, phonetics, and function. Additionally, the article discusses how newly created contours can be transferred intraorally to the laboratory benchtop and then to the final restorations. Through the process of verification, the clinician can establish restorative predictability to enhance the restorative success of any esthetic case.
