Temporary Crowns Overview

These can be extremely useful as the patient can assess the final result of a smile design or definitive reconstruction and make an informed decision regarding the contour, size, function and colour of the proposed restoration.

Benefits for your patients

  • Helpful diagnostic tool.
  • Protects teeth.
  • Stabilises the tooth position.
  • Allows soft tissue remodelling, especially with implants.

Considerations

  • Full mouth reconstruction cases often employ long-term provisionals for aesthetic and functional evaluation.
  • For larger cases, excellent well-fitting temporary implant crowns enable the patient to trial the phonetics of the final prosthesis.
  • Temporary restorations can be worn a few days, several weeks or even months.
