Directions to Use

Patient Assessment:

Evaluate the patient's oral condition to identify teeth requiring temporary restoration using 3M Protemp 4. This ensures proper planning for the temporary crown kit, supporting overall dental health.

Tooth Preparation:

Clean the tooth thoroughly and remove decay or damaged structure. Prepare the area properly before applying temporary crown resin or temporary crown filler to ensure strong adhesion.

Select Cartridge & Dispensing Gun:

Choose the correct 3M ESPE Protemp 4 cartridge based on clinical needs. Load the Protemp 4 cartridge into a compatible dispensing gun. Make sure you have additional 3M refills ready if required.

Dispensing:

Dispense the Protemp 4 temporary crown material directly onto the prepared tooth, or dispense it into an impression if fabricating a temporary bridge restoration.

Shaping & Sculpting:

Shape and sculpt the material using suitable tools. Create accurate anatomical contours and occlusion. The smooth handling of temporary crown resin makes contouring easier and more precise.

Contouring for Bridges:

For bridges, sculpt the Protemp 4 material to mimic the natural arch and alignment. Use impressions if necessary for enhanced accuracy and better dental health outcomes.

Curing:

Cure the 3M Protemp 4 material using a dental curing light for the recommended time to achieve optimal hardness and durability.
