3m Espe Protemp 4 Temporisation Material

• Reliably tough temporaries due to highest fracture resistance and better abrasion stability – also suitable for long-term temporisation.
• Patient-pleasing aesthetics and a comfortable fit through a smooth surface, natural shine and fluorescence, high colour stability. Easy plaque removal to support gingival health.
• Easier and faster handling and fabrication due to the reduced smear layer and gloss without polishing or glazing.

The groundbreaking 3M ESPE Protemp™ 4 Temporisation Material – a remarkable advancement in temporary crown and bridge materials. Leveraging the prowess of nanotechnology, 3M ESPE has harnessed its expertise to craft the industry's pioneering bis-acrylic composite, enriched with a new generation of sophisticated fillers. This innovative composition has yielded an unparalleled synergy of strength, handling, and aesthetics, setting a new standard in the field.

Sculpting strong and aesthetically pleasing provisionals has never been easier with Protemp™ 4. The streamlined process begins with the automix system, ensuring swift and consistent material delivery. Its user-friendly nature translates to enhanced procedural efficiency, while the abbreviated setting time further expedites the workflow.

Exceptional toughness has become a hallmark of Protemp™ 4, achieved through the harmonious interplay of 3M's proprietary nanofillers and polymers. This unique amalgamation imbues the material with qualities of strength, flexibility, and rapidity, rendering it versatile for a wide array of applications. From temporary crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, to veneers, this material is well-suited to create enduring restorations that stand the test of time.

Attaining a pristine, high-gloss finish has been simplified with Protemp™ 4. A quick wipe with alcohol transforms the restoration's surface, granting it a captivating shine. Not only does the smooth, glossy texture facilitate easy plaque removal, promoting gingival health, but it also eliminates the need for arduous polishing or glazing processes. Additionally, this product is available in a range of color-stable fluorescent shades, ensuring enduring vibrancy.

The advantages of Protemp™ 4 extend beyond its innovative composition. When compared to traditional bisacrylics (paste/paste), its automix delivery guarantees consistency and convenience. The material's lower exothermic reaction and shrinkage contribute to a precision fit, a pivotal factor in temporary restorations. The minimal odor further enhances the patient experience, underscoring its commitment to holistic dental care.
