In today’s busy life, patients may have trouble coordinating their work and home schedules when treatment requires multiple appointments. Typically, when restoration of teeth is related to failing amalgam or composite restorations or the presence of caries, this will require more extensive treatment than just placing another direct restoration and will typically require two appointments. The first appointment involves preparation of the tooth to remove the existing restorative material and caries, impression taking and placement of a provisional restoration. The second appointment is scheduled after laboratory fabrication of the restoration to insert it intra-orally.
