DuraTemp
Introducing DuraTemp: Elevate Your Provisional Experience
Experience the innovation of Tanaka Dental Lab’s DuraTemp provisional restorations, meticulously crafted within our laboratory to surpass traditional chair-side provisionals. DuraTemp redefines the standards of durability and aesthetics, even challenging the final restorations in their visual appeal. Our solution simplifies your provisional process, freeing up valuable chair-time resources, while simultaneously offering your patients a preview of their smile during the preparation appointment. Versatile for single crowns, multi-unit cases, and splinted full-arch bridges, DuraTemp excels across the spectrum. Particularly valuable when adjusting the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO), they aid in setting an optimal foundation before any preparation. Immediate extraction cases benefit immensely from DuraTemp, enabling the creation of precise pontic site contours.
DuraTemp provisional restorations can be masterfully crafted from both pre-operative and prepped models. Many of our clinicians utilize DuraTemp as diagnostic models for final restorations. Joint approval of length, contours, and shade with the patient post-seating is possible. Subsequently, an impression of the seated DuraTemp provisionals, along with final prepped impressions, can be sent to our lab. The DuraTemp models in place serve as a guiding template for crafting the ultimate restorations.
Enhance your profitability by reducing chair-side fabrication time. DuraTemp empowers your team to reclaim more chair-time, boosting overall productivity.
