[Margin's location of the full coverage crowns].

The margin's location of full coverage crowns is one of the most important factor susceptible to failure both biologically and mechanically. Most of the investigative proof shows that supragingival margins are kinder to gingivae than are subgingival margins. However clinical practice teaches and shows that supragingival margins are not always possible. For this reason in this study authors suggested intrasulcular margins. Of course all the factors of successful preparation is taken into under serious consideration. The related literature is also reviewed and the concept of "biological width" is presented.

[Evaluation and prognosis of periodontally involved teeth].

One of the most difficult parts of the perio- prosthetic treatment is the evaluation and the prognosis. This paper presents the basic factors affecting a successful prognosis. Factors like bone support, mobility, distribution of the remaining teeth, root morphology, etc. as well as factors like the "patient", abilities of the therapist, etc. has been presented. From our clinical experience and from the review of the literature is presented the basic guideline of a successful prognosis. "Prognosis" is not one of the black arts--it is a system of therapeutic projection based upon successes and failures of the past.
