Indications A short-term or long-term provisional for permanent centrals, laterals, cuspids and bicuspids. Product Features Made of a polycarbonate resin incorporating microglass fibers which provides durability and strength. Manufactured in a universal shade that is translucent enough to allow shade adjustment by the lining material of choice. Smooth, non-porous surface. - Comfortable for the patient. - Helps to minimise plaque buildup. Provisional crowns must protect the pulp and vitality of the prepared tooth and help maintain gingival health, while restoring esthetics and function. It is also important that the preparation margins, especially those in enamel, are protected and the tooth is stabilised in the arch. The provisional crown should be easy to adapt to the prepared tooth and easy to remove when needed. 3M™ ESPE™ Polycarbonate Prefabricated Crowns have been designed to meet these criteria. They are a time saver as they are easy to trim with dental burs or crown scissors, and can then be easily adjusted with pliers (fig. 1). 
Figure 1. The crowns are made of a polycarbonate resin incorporating microglass fibers which not only permit crown adjustment with pliers, but also give these crowns durability and strength. 3M™ ESPE™ polycarbonate crowns offer protection to the prepared crown margins as well as maintaining tooth function. 3M™ ESPE™ polycarbonate crowns have good anatomic form and esthetics in a wide range of sizes for centrals, laterals, cuspids and bicuspids. They are manufactured in a universal shade which is translucent enough to allow some shade adjustment by the type of lining material used. The crowns have a smooth surface finish for patient comfort and to help minimise plaque build-up.
