Iso-Form
Temporary Crowns are available in both
molar and premolar sizes. They provide
a positive contact point with adjacent
teeth,
allowing the use of dental floss and
other oral hygiene procedures
during the period of temporization. The
smooth, burnished surface of the crown
gives good compatibility with gingival
tissues.
Iso-Form temporary crowns have an anatomic
contour and occlusal surface. The crown
margin is constricted, and when placed
over the prepared tooth will stretch
to closely conform to the preparation
margin. The crown margin is easy to burnish
and can be quickly modified to conform
to the tooth preparation.
The crowns are made from a high purity
tin-silver alloy that is soft and ductile.
This not only gives Iso-Form crowns their
particular degree of ductility, but also
the advantage that a crown can be stretched
or burnished to alter the shape. The
accurate anatomy of these crowns and
their ability to automatically stretch
to fit the preparation margins make them
quick and easy to place.
Special Applications
Some crown preparations for posterior
teeth involve minimal occlusal reduction.
In these cases, the Iso-Form crowns are
easily adapted to the reduced occlusal
space to harmonise with the bite, while
still retaining the strength of the metal
alloy supported by the acrylic relining.
Teeth prepared for full coverage crowns
may often have short clinical crowns.
Iso-Form temporary crowns can be useful
for these patients, as the number of
sizes available combined with the ductility
of the tin-silver alloy allows quick
crown adaptation to fit the preparation.
A tin-silver
alloy crown, which is pre-finished, belled
and contoured for fast placement.
Indications
A short-term provisional restoration (2 weeks or less) for permanent bicuspids and molars.
Product Features
The smooth, burnished surface of the crown gives good compatibility with gingival tissues.
Will not produce galvanic shock (the electric shock felt by the patient when two metals come in contact).
Does not taste "metallic".
Retains shape of preperation and is easily stretched and burnshed to fit prep margins.
Faster placement for single units as compared to acrylics.
