ClearTemp LC, Temporary Veneers Luting Cement Refill

Clinical Overview

ClearTemp™ LC is a light‑cured resin cement developed specifically for temporary veneers. It features a translucent shade that won’t show through provisional restorations and a proprietary formulation that fluoresces under black light for easy identification of residual cement. Designed to bond more strongly to the provisional than to tooth structure, it supports clean removal while ensuring reliable retention.

Key Benefits

• Excellent retention: Light‑cured resin provides superior bond strength to securely hold thin provisional veneers in place.
• Translucent shade: Invisible beneath provisional veneers, delivering esthetic short‑term restorations.
• Fluorescent detection: Glows under black light for simplified removal of all cement remnants.
• Selective adhesion: Bonds preferentially to the provisional rather than tooth, minimizing cleanup damage.
• Ergonomic delivery: Contra‑angle syringe allows precise, controlled dispensing.
• Professional-grade esthetics: Exceptional seal and translucency for provisional veneers in the esthetic zone.

Kit Contents

• 4 × 0.67 g (approx. 0.5 mL) syringes of ClearTemp™ LC cement
• Instructions for use included

Working & Setting Times

• Light‑cure protocol: Seat temporary veneer and light cure with high‑intensity LED (e.g. VALO™) for 10 sec at ≥600 mW/cm² (or 20 sec if lower intensity).

Indications

• Cementation of thin, translucent provisional veneers (e.g. composite or acrylic)
• Temporary veneers in anterior esthetic zone where translucence and bond security are critical
• Not indicated for provisional crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, or permanent restorations due to high adhesion strength.

Instructions for Use

1. Remove product from refrigerated storage; allow to reach room temperature.
2. Clean, rinse, and lightly dry tooth preparation.
3. Apply ClearTemp™ LC to inner surface of the provisional veneer via syringe.
4. Seat veneer firmly, adjust fit, and remove excess cement with explorer or brush.
5. Light cure for 10 seconds using an LED curing light at ≥600 mW/cm² (or 20 sec at lower output).
6. To remove, break seal at margin, remove provisional—may fracture due to high adhesion.
7. Use black light to locate residual cement; remove with blunt instrument, pumice scrub or Consepsis™ Scrub cup, then rinse thoroughly.

Summary

Ultradent ClearTemp™ LC Temporary Veneer Cement Refill (Ref. 3518) offers clinicians a high‑performance light‑cured resin cement optimized for thin provisional veneers. With excellent retention, invisible translucence, fluorescent detection, and a syringe format for controlled application, it supports both esthetic presentation and efficient clinical removal while protecting the tooth preparation integrity.
