The patient presented with cracked tooth syndrome on a lower premolar. The One Visit Crown (OVC) was chosen based on its competitive price and good aesthetics.
This case study depicts a slightly different technique used by Dr Terry Wong, whereby the uncured material on the buccal side is shaped with OptraSculpt Pads (Ivoclar Vivadent) prior to curing. Dr Wong prefers to do as much of the shaping as possible prior to the final cure to reduce the time needed for finishing and polishing afterwards.
