The temporary crown and bridge material with extraordinary strength

The unique formulation of Protemp 3 Garant temporary material ensures a fracture rate markedly below that achieved by most previous temporary crown and bridge materials.

A "shock absorbing effect" intrinsic to the material cushions short-term peak forces, thus helping to prevent material fracture or chipping of the temporary restoration margins.

The superior strength of Protemp 3 Garant temporary material means fewer failed temporary restorations and fewer unscheduled surgery visits, which cost you time and money.

Protemp 3 Garant temporary material keeps its shape under pressure

The high mechanical strength of Protemp 3 Garant temporary material keeps prepared teeth in position. Occlusal contacts and proximal support are preserved. In contrast to Protemp 3 Garant temporay material, the inadequate mechanical strength of typical PMMA products permits drifting of the abutments and transmits stress to the periodontium and gingivae.
