- After step 1: Depth-orient occlusal grooves
Are the depth grooves inside the occlusal band? - After step 2: Reduce occlusal table following anatomy
Does the table still follow the cusps? - After step 4: Axially reduce walls
Read each wall on its own along the line of draw. - After step 5: Open proximal surfaces with guarded bur
Look at #29 and #31 directly. - After step 6: Finish continuous chamfer and verify clearance with putty index
Seat the sectioned putty index and read the gap.
