Dentists generally fail to recognize the importance of the correct construction and finishing of acrylic temporary restorations from the periodontologic point of view. The potential traumatic effect of these restorations on the gingiva is rarely considered. A survey of 1000 dentists in Western Germany revealed some common errors. The results are compared with the clinical requirements for temporary restorations.
