Why is there a desiccant packed in every jar of Tempit?
As Tempit is a moisture activated material, it is important to keep the prefilled tubes dry. If exposed to excessive humidity or moisture, the material will set or harden in the tip.
Can you use with deciduous teeth?
Yes you can use with baby teeth. Remember Tempit sets under moisture. It will not be absorbed, but it will wash out over time.
Is Tempit absorbable?
Tempit is not absorbable by the body.
What viscosity is Tempit?
Tempit is a "medium" viscosity which is similar to Cavit's white formula.
What syringe would I use to place Tempit?
You can use any Centrix C-R Syringe. For ease of use, we recommend the Snap-Fit Syringe.
What are the benefits of Eugenol?
Eugenol helps sedate inflamed pulp and has antibacterial properties.
What composite materials can you use with Eugenol?
When using glass ionomer restorative material, the dentist will use zinc oxide with eugenol as a temporary filling material.
What % of eugenol is in Tempit-E?
Less than 5%
How does eugenol work?
Small quantities of eugenol diffuse through the dentin to the pulp. Low concentrations of eugenol exert anti-inflammatory and local anesthetic effects on the dental pulp; thus use of ZOE temporary filling may facilitate pulpal healing.
Should enchants or bonding agents be used with Tempit L/C?
No etching or bonding agent should be used with Tempit L/C. If vital dentin is exposed, it is a good idea to disinfect and treat the dentin with a desensitizer before using Tempit L/C.
Can you use Tempit Ultra as a cavity liner?
No, Tempit Ultra is a temporary restorative material that is not designed as a liner, nor should it be used as a core buildup material.
Will Tempit Ultra adhere to ethyl methacrylate?
No. They do not share the same chemistry so Tempit Ultra will not adhere to ethyl methacrylates when trying to extend margins.
Does Tempit Ultra bond with dentin or enamel?
No, Tempit Ultra was designed to have mechanical retention. When first expressed from tip [before light activated] the material is sticky so as to adhere to the structure. It was designed this way. Tempit Ultra does not shrink when light activated so that the mechanical retention is not compromised and is retention remains tight, which is why the material has to be removed with a burr.
Does Tempit Ultra have eugenol or a sedative in it?
No. Dentists may sometimes select a sedative filling for temporary use in vital, sensitive teeth. Eugenol has been known and used successfully for many years to impart a "calming, soothing effect". It basically works like a temporary anesthetic on the nerve endings to limit the perception of pain.
What syringe would I use to place Tempit Ultra?
On return visit, Tempit® may be removed with an explorer.
Do not use in presence of eugenol
