1-Select an appropriately sized resin-based prefabricated crown based on the mesio-distal width of the tooth. 2-Perform occlusal reduction of approximately 1.5-2.0 mm following the natural occlusal anatomy. 3-Reduce buccal and lingual cusps, central groove, and marginal ridges to achieve adequate occlusal clearance. 4-Perform proximal reduction using a tapered fissure or diamond bur to eliminate mesial and distal contacts by approximately 1.0 mm. 5-Avoid creating ledges or damaging adjacent teeth during proximal reduction. 6-Slightly reduce buccal and lingual surfaces to eliminate undercuts and facilitate crown seating. 7-Round and smooth all sharp line angles and points of the preparation. 8-In cases with adjacent teeth, perform additional interproximal reduction if required for proper seating.9-Try-in the crown intraorally and seat it using firm pressure from lingual to buccal direction. 10-Check marginal adaptation, ensuring slight subgingival extension (approximately 0.5-1.0 mm).

1-Select an appropriately sized stainless steel crown based on the mesiodistal width of the tooth. 2-Perform minimal occlusal reduction (approximately 1.0-1.5 mm) following the anatomical occlusal contour to create suficient space for crown placement. 3-Lightly reduce proximal contacts to allow crown seating, without creating steps or excessive taper. 4-Perform minimal buccal and lingual reduction only if required to eliminate undercuts and facilitate passive seating. 5-Round sharp line angles and smooth rough surfaces to allow proper adaptation. 5-Verify adequate occlusal clearance and passive path of insertion. 6-Try-in the crown and adjustsize if necessary to ensure proper fit. 7-Trim and contour crown margins to achieve optimal gingival adaptation (if needed). 8-Seat the crown firmly using finger pressure to confirm complete seating. 9-Cement the crown with glass ionomer cement and remove excess cement after initial setting.
