Brief Summary  

 Gingival crevicular fluid  contains various biomarkers, which are associated with periodontal inflammation and tissue degradation. Among the various biomarkers present in GCF, pro-inflammatory cytokines such as Interleukin-6  and Interleukin-1 beta play a pivotal role in the host immune response and appears early in GCF.Numerous studies have explored gingival biomarker levels in relation to permanent crowns, there is limited research on how provisional crowns influence gingival inflammation and biomarker expression.Literature is scanty on effect of provisional crowns fabricated using milled or PMMA on periodontal health. Therefore this study is designed.
