Excellent strength.

When compared to other temporization materials, Protemp™ Crown Temporization Material has excellent overall mechanical strength. Tests show that it has high compressive, tensile and flexural strength

Short-rod toughness contributes to the durability of a provisional restoration. It measures the energy needed to propagate a crack through the material.

Provides a tooth-colored restoration.

With its tooth-colored shade and preformed anatomical shape, Protemp™ Crown Temporization Material provides a temporary restoration with natural-looking esthetics. The crowns can be customized and/or repaired using a conventional flowable such as Filtek™ Supreme Plus Flowable Restorative, or composite materials, and can be polished to a shiny tooth-like appearance.

Protemp™ Crown provides a custom fit for your adult patients.  Protemp™ Crown temporization material can be trimmed, adapted and re-shaped chair-side using common dental instruments. The end result produces a good marginal, interproximal and occlusal fit which promotes gingival health and maintains temporary space while maintaining good provisional strength.

Protemp™ Crown has very low oxygen inhibited layer and other physical characteristics such as no odor and low exothermic temperatures.  Because Protemp™ Crown is not a liquid powder mix, there is no unpleasant smell when working with the product.  And because it is light cured on demand there are low exothermic temperatures during the fitting process.
