Clinical Overview
Provitemp is a short-term temporary cement designed for secure, predictable cementation of provisional restorations for up to 6 weeks. Its low solubility supports a tight marginal seal, while the two-stage self-curing system (gel phase followed by final set) enables clean removal of excess and efficient chairside workflow. Delivered via an automix syringe with mixing tips, Provitemp provides a consistent, homogeneous mix for controlled application and reliable seating—without eugenol, making it suitable for vital teeth and compatible with resin-based definitive sealants.
Key Benefits
- Tight marginal seal: Low solubility (7 μg/mm³) supports retention and reduces washout risk during short-term temporisation.
- Two-stage self-curing: Gel phase allows easy cleanup of excess, followed by final set for dependable cementation.
- Controlled, consistent mix: Automix syringe and mixing tips ensure homogeneous mixing and accurate dispensing.
- Clinician-friendly handling: Supports efficient seating, predictable excess removal, and clean margins.
- Suitable for vital teeth: Eugenol-free composition avoids irritation and prevents interference with resin-based definitive materials.
Indications
- Temporary cementation of crowns.
- Temporary cementation of bridges.
- Temporary cementation of inlays and onlays.
- Temporary cementation of splints.
Instructions for Use
- Clean and dry the tooth/abutment and the internal surface of the provisional restoration.
- Attach a mixing tip to the automix syringe and dispense a small amount to ensure even mixing.
- Apply a thin, uniform layer of Provitemp inside the restoration (avoid overfilling).
- Seat the restoration with steady pressure and verify complete seating.
- Allow the cement to reach the gel phase, then remove excess from margins and interproximal areas.
- Allow to self-cure to the final set before final occlusal checks and patient release.
Summary
Provitemp provides short-term temporary cementation with a tight seal supported by low solubility and a two-stage self-curing system for clean excess removal. Its automix delivery ensures consistent handling and controlled application, while the eugenol-free formula makes it safe for vital teeth and compatible with resin-based definitive procedures.
