Provitemp Short-Term Temporary Cement (Up to 6 Weeks)

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

1. Clean and dry the tooth/abutment and the internal surface of the provisional restoration.
2. Attach a mixing tip to the automix syringe and dispense a small amount to ensure even mixing.
3. Apply a thin, uniform layer of Provitemp inside the restoration (avoid overfilling).
4. Seat the restoration with steady pressure and verify complete seating.
5. Allow the cement to reach the gel phase, then remove excess from margins and interproximal areas.
6. 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.
