  4. 10. The _______ margin is the edge of the tooth preparation that provides a secure fit for the crown portion of the FPD

  6. 7. The _______ is a type of fixed partial denture where a pontic is suspended between two abutment teeth without additional support
  7. 8. The _______ principle of tooth preparation involves creating a smooth and continuous margin to enhance the fit and longevity of the FPD
  8. 12. The _______ phase involves creating a temporary restoration to protect the prepared teeth and maintain esthetics and function until the final FPD is ready.
