Abstract
A dental preparation cuff is used to expose a transition region (preparation margin) between a tooth neck of a prepared tooth and surrounding gums. The preparation cuff has a tooth opening to place on the tooth, having a peripheral wall with a cross-sectionally wedge-shaped, radially inwardly tapering edge region. The preparation cuff is manufactured from a material with a Shore hardness in the range between 70A and 95A. This results in a preparation cuff providing improved patient tolerability.
