Final Steps Before Seating a Restoration

Before seating a dental restoration, I ensure model work, die consistency, and restoration fit. Custom dies match the patient's stump shade for accurate color matching. I assess the restoration on the hard die model and individual dies for consistency. Thorough preparation ensures the final restoration matches the provisional accurately.
