Abstrakt:	Based on data from patient records of 9996 crowns constructed in forty general practices, it is discussed what crown types have been constructed in different patient categories. It was found that female 'crown patients' received on average more crowns than male patients. Hardly any difference was found between the average number of crowns the patients with or without reimbursement had received. In the younger patients (<21 years) more jacket crowns were constructed. The 21-30 year group received more full metal crowns, whereas the oldest group (> 51 years) had more metal-porcelain crowns. Sick-fund patients received more jacket crowns and metal-porcelain crowns on front teeth, while private patients received more full-metal crowns. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
