Technique
1. If porcelain veneer
is present, use a diamond to cut a "slot" down to the metal.
Use a carbide bur to cut through the metal the entire length of the facial or
lingual surface and onto the occlusal.
2. When there is no
metal remaining in the "slot", place the Nemetz Crown Remover firmly
down the "slot". Depending on the location use the end which
is most comfortable and will allow instrument movement.
3. Gently rotate the
Nemetz Crown Remover while holding it firmly in the "slot".
Use only enough force to allow the instrument's techniques head design to
spread the crown slightly as it is rotated.
4. As the crown
spreads, displacement will take place in both frontal and lateral directions
and the cement bond will be broken. At this point the crown or bridge
should be ready to remove.
