High-Performance Automix Composite for Temporary Crowns, Bridges, Inlays, Onlays and Veneers

Provi Temp K is a self-curing, automix composite material designed for the direct fabrication of short- and long-term temporary dental restorations. Based on multifunctional methacrylates, it combines high mechanical strength, excellent flexibility and natural aesthetics for reliable provisional treatment.

Its unique combination of high final hardness and elasticity makes Provi Temp K particularly suitable for extensive temporary bridges and restorations with longer spans.

High Strength Meets Excellent Flexibility

Provi Temp K offers outstanding mechanical properties, including high flexural strength, excellent abrasion resistance and low polymerisation shrinkage. The combination of strength and elasticity supports the fabrication of durable temporary restorations, even with thin crown margins or extended bridge spans. Its low polymerisation shrinkage contributes to excellent marginal accuracy and a precise fit, helping to protect prepared teeth against external influences while maintaining occlusion.

Natural Aesthetics and Excellent Polishability

Provi Temp K combines mechanical performance with attractive aesthetic properties. The material can be polished to a high gloss and offers good colour stability for natural-looking temporary restorations. Its fluorescence under UV light further supports the reproduction of natural tooth characteristics.

Fast and Convenient Automix Application

The automix system ensures consistent mixing and allows direct application into a previously prepared impression. With a working time of approximately 50 seconds at 23°C, Provi Temp K enables efficient clinical handling. After approximately 1–2 minutes in the mouth at 37°C, the temporary restoration can be removed during its elastic phase.

Final curing is completed after approximately 4 minutes and 30 seconds from the start of mixing when post-cured in warm water at 45–55°C, or after approximately 6 minutes at room temperature. Once fully cured, the restoration can be finished with rotary instruments and polished to a high gloss.

Easy Repair and Adjustment

Another important advantage of Provi Temp K is its excellent repairability. In the event of a fracture, the cured material can be repaired using freshly mixed Provi Temp K or suitable light-curing composites. This makes Provi Temp K a practical solution for temporary restorations requiring adjustments or repairs during the treatment period.
