This paper reviews the relevant dental literature concerning the effect fo die‐spacing on crown elevation and pre‐ and post‐cementation crown retention. Techniques of providing die‐spacing and measurement of the thickness of the role of the provision of a cement space in reducing post‐cementation crown elevation is presented. Factors which may affect crown retnetion prior to and following cementation are also reviewed. The influence of variables in techniques and experimental design on the results of the studies reviewed is discussed.
