Poulami Ghosh Three situations- crown is short with open margins, its because of delay to
pour the impression, or distorted impression. Crowns when they don't fit together , but fit
alone, obviously overcontoured proximal. That is why together they don't fit, same thing
happens if the technician trims the adjacent tooth. Third situation ,when the die has been
trimmed by the technician, obviously the crown will now be tight, and won't fit on the crown.
The trimmed portion will be taken by the crown metal , and will thus be an unfit.
