ORTHO INDUSTRY NEWS Crown & Bridge Protection Tuff-Temp™ Provisional Glaze, by Pulpdent Corporation, is designed to glaze and protect provisional crowns and bridges. It improves aesthetics and increases resistance to surface wear and stain-ing. Tuff-Temp Provi-sional Glaze can be cured with all lights and is part of the new Tuff-Temp™ Provi-sional Veneer Crown & Bridge Resin system, the first advancement in provisional materials in 18 years. Tuff-Temp Provisional Veneer Crown & Bridge Resin is a new rubberized-urethane provisional material available only from Pulp-dent. Tuff-Temp’s rubberized-urethane chemistry provides greater strength and dimensional stability, and a tighter-fitting provi-sional restoration than bisacrylics and acrylics. With Pulpdent Tuff-Temp Resin, temporaries are tough, impact-resis-tant, and grip the teeth. Chipping, breaking, debonding, and rece-mentations are mini-mized or eliminated. Tuff-Temp is designed to grind and powder, producing crisp and accurate margins that do not soften or distort. It does not gum up or clog finishing instruments. A fast appli-cation of Tuff-Temp Provisional Glaze provides enhanced esthetics and patient satisfaction during temporization. For more informa-tion, visit www.pulpdent.com.
