title: The preformed stainless steel crown for restoration of permanent posterior teeth in special cases.
abstract: There are problems involving permanent posterior teeth for which the stainless steel crown may provide the most desirable short-term solution. In placing the crown, emphasis should be given to recognition of the wide variation of available crowns, occlusal considerations, the importance of the rubber dam, and the use of a precementation radiograph to confirm margin adaptation of the crown.
