It forms a flat ledge around the tooth near the gumline where the restoration is designed to meet the tooth. In plain terms, it is the \u201cstep\u201d the dentist makes so the crown or ceramic can seat predictably and have enough thickness at the edge. It is commonly used for ceramic and porcelain restorations where margin support and esthetics matter."}
