A report on materials used by dental students for core restorations in single and multiunit crowns
Purpose:
This study evaluated the materials used for tooth core restorations by dental students.
Materials And Methods:
The study included all patients treated with a single crown or fixed partial denture by undergraduate dental students during the years 1984 to 1986, 1994 to 1996, and 2004 to 2006.
Results:
More direct (62%) than indirect (38%) cores were prepared during the total time period evaluated.
Conclusion:
The complication rate of indirect cores compared with direct ones appeared to be higher in single crowns, but not in fixed partial dentures.
