Popis: A satisfactory provisional fixed partial denture (FPD) should provide positional stability, maintain the occlusion, and place an additional load on the abutments so that if sensitivity develops, it will subside before the insertion of the definitive FPD. This article presents a technique using an indirect-direct procedure for the fabrication of a 2-part provisional FPD, utilizing a commercially available stainless steel wrought-wire clasp with an occlusal rest, which fulfills all the requirements of a provisional FPD.
