Temporary Dental Crown Set

A Temporary Dental Crown Set is a type of dental instrument used in dentistry for temporary crown restorations. It is part of the supply class Dental Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies, which falls under the supply group Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Equipment and Supplies.

Temporary dental crowns are used to protect a tooth that has undergone a dental procedure, such as a root canal or tooth extraction, until a permanent crown can be placed. They are typically made from acrylic or composite materials and are designed to provide temporary coverage and protection for the tooth.

Temporary dental crown sets usually include a variety of crown sizes and shapes to accommodate different tooth sizes and shapes. They may also include additional materials such as dental cement or adhesive to secure the temporary crown in place.

Dentists use temporary dental crowns to protect the underlying tooth structure, prevent sensitivity, maintain proper tooth alignment, and provide aesthetic appearance while the permanent crown is being fabricated in a dental laboratory. Once the permanent crown is ready, the temporary crown is removed, and the permanent crown is cemented or bonded onto the tooth.

Overall, temporary dental crown sets are essential tools in dental practices to ensure the proper care and protection of teeth during the crown restoration process.
