DSI Temp is a temporary filling material designed to last up to two weeks, making it an excellent barrier against bacteria when isolating treatment materials within a carious cavity. This provisional filling material is composed of a polymer-zinc-sulfate cement that hardens in the patient's mouth within two hours due to moisture. As it hardens, it expands to create a well-sealed margin between the tooth and the filling. Additionally, DSI Temp offers high-stress resistance and superior adhesion to harder dental tissues.
DSI Temp is ideal for emergency situations involving exposure to deeper layers of the tooth. It provides immediate relief from discomfort and sensitivity. Intended for short-term use, DSI Temp is invaluable in urgent treatment scenarios.
Indications:
Emergency Immediate Care - For cases involving sharp, extreme pain and exposure to deeper layers of the tooth.
Multi-Step Fillings - In certain situations, a multi-stage procedure is necessary to accurately assess the final outcome of a filling. Initially, the affected tooth is filled with a temporary material for an interim period as part of this method.
Root Canal Treatment - A typical root canal procedure involves multiple steps. To protect the cleaned canals from foreign particles, a temporary filling is placed before the final stages of the treatment.
Irritated Pulp - Pain from an inflamed nerve in a tooth can be unbearable. This condition, known as the irritated pulp, requires prompt treatment to provide relief.
Restoration of Milk Teeth - This material is also ideal for treating cavities in milk teeth and is not limited to adult patients.
Temporary Seal for Medicaments - Temporary fillings can be used to seal in medicaments such as eugenol, antibiotics, or other pain and inflammation remedies, providing relief before the final restoration technique is applied.
