There are many acceptable methods of tooth preparation for full-coverage restorations. The technique used should be systematic, with step-by-step procedures to produce an easily followed routine. This will minimize undesirable, haphazard tooth reduction. The technique presented in this paper is a simple, exacting, and conservative method of tooth reduction, requiring a minimum of instrumentation.
