Crowns and extra-coronal restorations: considerations when planning treatment.
Considerations when planning treatment is the third in the series of crowns and other extra-coronal restorations. Articles or chapters on treatment planning in restorative dentistry can make pretty dry reading, often built around a list of factors that might influence your decision-making. In truth though, planning and placing crowns or other extra-coronal restorations cannot be distilled into a series of lists. The decision-making involved requires experience, subtle understanding and a flexible approach, none of which come easily.
