title: [Gingival preparation].
abstract: For the general practitioner, the superficial periodontal structure is an obstacle when trying to gain access, control and visualization to juxta or infra gingival preparations. A temporary restoration will maintain and protect those limits and in many cases it is a very efficient procedure. Sometimes it is necessary to enhance the gingival preparation by sophisticated methods. There are many different technics available to the practitioner. In this article we will describe the technics with easy clinical use and those respecting the gingival tissue (mechanical, physico-chemical).
