The Importance of Effective Temporisation

Temporary restorations are an essential component of the crown and bridge procedure. It is the attention to detail during temporisation that lays the foundations for making seating the final crown or bridge easier.

For patients who sometimes require having a temporary crown or bridge in place for several months, it is especially important that their partial denture looks good and allows them to eat and brush their teeth as normally as possible without fear of causing damage.

Key Point: Good temporisation is vitally important for protecting oral tissues following tooth preparation and for gingival healing.

Acrylic vs. Bisacrylic Temporisation Material

The two most widely used materials for indirect temporary restorations are acrylics and bisacrylics. Many dentists still use acrylic due to familiarity and price — but there is no denying the advantages bisacrylic holds over its more traditional counterpart.

⚗️ Acrylic

  • Familiar to most dentists
  • Lower cost
  • High exothermic reaction

  • Strong odour
  • Manual mixing required
