1) partial crown fabricated from leucite ceramics;
2) core in onlays;
3) external attachments;
4) complete metal-ceramics crown;
5) metal crown on post and core.
Correct answer is:
  1. A. 2,3,4.
  2. B. 1,2,3.
  3. C. 2,3,5.
  4. D. 1,3,6.

Strongly tilted abutments cannot share one path of insertion; look for solutions that split the bridge or change the abutment axis.
