Only treatment of the lower jaw is provided, since both the R line and the TP line for the upper jaw (OK) are empty.
Findings (B line)
The wisdom teeth (18 and 28) are missing.
The wisdom teeth (48 and 38) are missing. On the penultimate molar on the right there is an intact, uncovered crown (k). The two rear molars on the left (36 and 37) are already crowned, but the artificial tooth crowns are defective and must be replaced (no other details).

The defective tooth crowns should be replaced with new ones. Since the teeth to be treated are beyond the veneering limit, no veneering is intended. (Not done because the TP line is filled.)
Therapy planning (TP line)
All-ceramic crowns should be placed as an alternative, similar treatment.
