Delivering a fixed restoration: a clinical rationale for creating a routine sequence.
The proper sequence of seating a restoration starts with the evaluation of the shade match. Clinical procedures then follow this sequence: adjustment of proximal contact points, assessment of fit, and occlusal adjustment. Attempts to alter this sequence may cause unnecessary occlusal adjustments and an end result of a hypooccluded restoration.
