temporary crown
Placeholder dental cover
A temporary crown is a provisional dental cap placed over a tooth while a permanent crown is being fabricated.
Made from acrylic or composite materials, it protects the prepared tooth and maintains spacing for a few weeks until the final restoration is ready: Don't chew anything sticky on that side—it's just a temporary crown.
