INSTRUCTIONS FOR TEMPORARY RECEMENTING OF A CROWN OR BRIDGE:
YOU HAVE BEEN PROVIDED WITH A TEMPORARY FILLING MATERIAL CALLED TEMP-BOND.
It is two-paste cement system that can be used to re-cement a dental crown or bridge under instruction from the dentist.
See video:
- Please ensure you thoroughly wash your hands before proceeding.
- Try the crown or bridge back onto your tooth first to ensure that it still fits. Once sure then remove it again.
- You will need to make sure that the tooth you are cementing the crown to and the crown itself are dry. This can be done by drying them with a tissue.
- Mix the two pastes together using the stick provided.
- Use the mixing stick to paint a very thin layer of the mixed cement inside the crown or bridge.
- Place the crown/bridge onto you tooth and bite your teeth together.
- Remove any excess cement from around the edges with a clean mixing stick provided.
- If your teeth do not feel comfortable when biting together remove the crown or bridge immediately before the cement sets. Remove any paste from your tooth also with a tissue.
- The cement will take about five minutes to harden.
