Written by megan | Jul 23, 2012 5:55:34 PM

Light-activated Tempit Ultra-F is an Intermediate Restorative Material that sets hard in 40 seconds so there is no waiting. Our unique direct delivery system provides faster, easier placement AND eliminates voids. It is pre-filled so there will be no mixing, no mess, and no inaccurate mixtures.

Tempit Ultra-F is designed for temporary fillings lasting up to one year. It uses a biocompatible diurethane dimethacrylate resin and will not “wash out”. Plus it has a coefficient of thermal expansion that’s closer to natural tooth structure. No etching or bonding agents are required. For use in temporary root canal sealing and as Intermediate Restorative Material. Tempit Ultra-F may be easily removed with a bur before placing the permanent restoration. Tempit Ultra-F has no eugenol to cause allergic reactions or interfere with setting of composites. It comes in a neutral tooth color shade and has no clove smell!

How to Use Tempit Ultra:
(Do not use in presence of eugenol)

1. Clean and disinfect prep. On exposed pulp, place a calcium hydroxide pulp-capping agent (Calciject™). On vital dentin, a desensitizing liner (Glu/Sense™) is recommended. Do not acid etch or use bonding agents.

2. Prep should be as dry as possible.

3. Place TEMPIT® ULTRA tip in syringe. Remove cap and inject. Use a matrix when indicated. Shape and contour with conventional composite instruments. To reduce stickiness, dip instruments in alcohol or refrigerate Tempit® Ultra tips before use.

4. Light activate with a conventional halogen light source for 40 seconds. TEMPIT® ULTRA will cure up to 6 mm deep.

5. To adjust occlusion or remove TEMPIT® ULTRA after it is set, use water-cooled diamonds or burs. Keep away from sources of strong visible light. Do not freeze.
