Brief Summary
The goal of this in vitro study is to compare the marginal fit and internal adaptation of all-metal crowns in polished crown preparations and non-polished crown preparations The main question it aims to answer is: are the non polished tooth preparations comparable to polished preparations? We will compare polish and non polish groups and see their effects on marginal fit and internal adaptation of all metal crown

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
marginal fit
The margins of fixed restorations refers to the junction between the prepared tooth structure and the crown restoration
six months
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Internal fit
six months
Study Arms (1)
NP is given to the non polished group which is group 2
Out of two groups, group 2 is a test group to which rough preparations are assigned
Interventions
prevention of microleakage and secondary carries
Eligibility Criteria

You may qualify if:
- Phantom teeth
- Maxillary molars
- Metal crowns with conventional lost-wax technique for crown fabrication
You may not qualify if:
- Over prepared or underprepared crowns
