title: Avoiding sulcular hemorrhage during anterior restoration.
abstract: Maintaining a dry field for impressions during restoration of anterior teeth remains a difficult goal, and many factors--oral and systemic--may complicate matters. A systematic operative approach can minimize the effects of gingival inflammation on the ultimate outcome. Patient satisfaction may be increased, and the length of chair-time reduced.
