3. The stainless-steel metal crown is the most durable restoration in the primary
dentition for large cavities and endodontically treated teeth.
5. Rubber dam should be placed, if at all possible, prior to the restoration of all teeth.
6. Careful evaluation of the state of pulp inflammation should be carried out before
the placement of proximal restorations in primary teeth. Wherever the pulp is deemed
to be involved, pulp therapy should be carried out prior to the coronal restoration.
