A histologic evaluation of tissue response to three currently used temporary acrylic resin crowns.
The subgingival placement of any one of the three types of temporary crowns placed on 28 posterior teeth of seven subjects caused no detectable change in the gingiva over a 3 week period. There is a need for further study of the influence of temporary crowns on the different types of gingival tissue.
