TEMPORARY CROWNS AND BRIDGES
Temporary restorations, are short-term restorations designed to protect prepared teeth while the final permanent restoration is being fabricated.
What Are Temporary Crowns And Bridges ?
Temporary crowns and bridges are provisional restorations typically fabricated from acrylic or PMMA materials. They are designed to cover and protect the prepared tooth or implant site until the final crown, bridge, or implant restoration is completed.
Key Benefits
- Protects prepared teeth from sensitivity and damage
- Maintains proper tooth position and occlusion
- Preserves gingival architecture and emergence profile
- Restores basic aesthetics during treatment
- Improves patient comfort between appointments
Materials Used
Temporary crowns and bridges are commonly fabricated using high-quality provisional materials such as:
- PMMA (Polymethyl Methacrylate)
- 3D printing Light Cure Resins
- CAD/CAM milled provisional resins (PEEK)
These materials provide sufficient strength and aesthetics for short-term use.
Y Med Dental Laboratory Approach
At our laboratory, temporary restorations are fabricated with precise attention to fit, contour, and occlusion. Using digital design and modern fabrication techniques, we ensure provisional restorations that provide stability, comfort, and aesthetic support throughout the treatment phase.
Each temporary restoration is carefully finished to allow proper tissue healing and to support the final restorative outcome.
