Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Active Comparator: Modified Hall technique
The standard Hall technique was later modified with several modifications including occasional/rare use of anesthetic and about 1 mm proximal slice that the preformed metal crown fits without separation, and minimal occlusal reduction of the cusps
Experimental: Hall Technique
The standard Hall technique was later modified with several modifications including occasional/rare use of anesthetic and about 1 mm proximal slice that the preformed metal crown fits without separation, and minimal occlusal reduction of the cusps
