Expedited Provisionalization of a Missing Crown: A Case Report

Mil Med. 2024 Jan 18:usae004. doi: 10.1093/milmed/usae004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProvisional restorations are required in fixed prosthodontics to protect a prepared tooth until a definitive restoration can be delivered. A patient sought treatment at a prosthodontics practice to replace a missing provisional crown until definitive treatment could be performed once the patient returned from a field exercise. This case report describes a novel way to provide a provisional restoration when other techniques are not feasible, which can be utilized in the clinic or in an austere environment.PMID:38245001 | DOI:10.1093/milmed/usae004
