Luxatemp Fluorescence makes your temporaries look as good as final restorations…in all lighting conditions! The fluorescence in Luxatemp Fluorescence is not a simple trick of color or shading, but rather a remarkable technological breakthrough that allows temporary restorations to reflect light more like natural teeth. Luxatemp Fluorescence puts your temporaries in the best light possible and it still gives you everything you love about Luxatemp. Dispensed from our popular Luxatemp automix dispensing system, Luxatemp Fluorescence is available in all 5 lifelike Luxatemp shades and features the same reliable Luxatemp 10:1 bisacryl composition you've come to trust.

Provisional Material FAQ

Why won't Luxatemp set?

A clog in the cartridge is the most common reason for Luxatemp not setting. This problem occurs mostly in the older style cartridges. The older style cartridge has port openings where the catalyst and base are close together. This may cause the base material to come in contact with the catalyst, causing a setting reaction thereby clogging the port opening. When you eliminate the catalyst from the mix the material will not set. You can easily eliminate this problem by bleeding a small amount of material from the cartridge (without a mixing tip attached) prior to each use, and checking to see that there is proper flow of catalyst and base from the Luxatemp cartridge.

Why did Luxatemp break when I removed it from the mouth?

This occurs mainly on long span bridges and is due to the quick setting time of Luxatemp. Please note that Luxatemp material goes through a soft, doughy, rubbery stage, which occurs between 2 and 3 minutes from beginning the mix. It is critical that you remove the crown or bridge from the mouth during this stage, in order to avoid a brittleness problem. Using Luxatemp Solar is also a good way to address this issue because it sets upon light curing, giving you control over the setting time.

Why did The Luxatemp Provisional fracture intraorally?

This is mainly due to the forces of mastication (chewing) in the mouth. These fractures almost always involve bridges, but on some rare occasions may involve single crowns. In the bridges there are often thin areas, particularly in interproximal areas that you should reinforce prior to cementing the bridge in place. You can place a fiber mesh material within the Luxatemp bridge as you build the material up. You would generally do this where there is a pontic area; a space that is unsupported by a tooth preparation. For repairs to Luxatemp provisionals use LuxaFlow™, a light cured resin material designed specifically as an add-on material for bisacryl provisionals. It easily repairs any voids or margins within the temporary crown or bridge.

What do you recommend for polishing Luxatemp?

Instead of mechanical polishing, we recommend using LuxaGlaze® , a revolutionary new one-bottle light-cured varnish for glazing the surfaces of provisional crowns and bridges. It light-cures in as little as 10 seconds, providing a quick, easy and esthetically superior alternative to mechanical polishing. However, if you still want to mechanically polish Luxatemp, you can do it using rotary instruments, composite finishing burs and diamonds, much in the same way you would polish a composite filling material.

How many crowns can you make from one 76gm Cartridge of Luxatemp Automix Plus?

Approximately 50.

I have a patient who is experiencing gingival irritation with Luxatemp temporaries. What should I do?

Check to see if the gingival margin of the Luxatemp crown or bridge is coming in contact with the tissue. There is a possibility that this could cause irritation in certain patients. You can under-contour the crown in order to keep it away from the gingival tissue and then add on more material later if necessary using LuxaFlow™ composite material.

Can I use Vaseline®* or other petroleum based products with Luxatemp?

Not if you are going to use a resin-based temporary cement to cement the provisional. After making the crown or bridge impression, you may choose to lubricate the prep area prior to seating the temporary. These types of lubricants are water insoluble and cannot be removed with a water spray. These lubricants would remain on the tooth and possibly affect the setting of a resin-based temporary cement. In these cases, you can use non petroleum-based products such as K-Y®**Jelly lubricant. * Vaseline is a registered trademark of Unilever. ** KY Jelly is a registered trademark of Johnson and Johnson.

I am using my tray impression as my matrix to make my Luxatemp temporary. After I make the temporary, I inject light body material into that same impression in order to use it for my crown or bridge impression. I am getting delaminating between heavy and light impression material. why?

After removal of the Luxatemp temporary, you must clean the prep area of the teeth. Smear layer from Luxatemp (oxygen inhibited layer) may leave residue on prep area, effecting the set of the impression material.
