title: Acrylic resin copings: an adjunct to fixed restorative dentistry.
abstract: A simple technique for fabricating and several uses for acrylic resin copings have been presented. These techniques apply to many aspects of restorative dentistry and often are used in combination with each other. Master cast fabrication, interocclusal registrations, and verification of die accuracy can be done using the copings during a one-appointment sequence. The use of resin copings is especially helpful for the inexperienced dentist, permitting high quality dentistry with a minimum of mistakes and frustations. For the experienced fixed prosthodontist they provide another approach to treatment.
