Proven success material for temporary crowns and bridges
Luxatemp Automix Plus is used to create provisional restorations for placement in the patient’s mouth during indirect and prosthodontic treatments. Luxatemp Automix Plus provides extremely accurate provisionals with excellent marginal adaptation and negligible linear shrinkage during polymerization, eliminating the need to re-marginate. It produces durable and long-lasting temporaries that are abrasion resistant and easily removable.
The high hardness prevents wearing down of bridges eliminating the perforations of the provisional and the risk of saliva, bacteria and thermal irritants reaching the tooth. The fabrication of provisionals can be done directly in the patient’s mouth with no heat damage to pulp or tissue due to minimal heat production during polymerization.
The quick, easy-to-use dispensing Automix delivery system saves time and money and eliminates waste while allowing for easy control of the material being dispensed. The cartridge incorporates distinctly separate outlets for base and catalyst preventing material cross-contamination which can lead to the material not setting.
Specially designed Mixing Tips provide an exact 10:1 base/catalyst ratio guaranteeing a thorough mix every time, color stability, minimizing porous surfaces, reducing staining from coffee, tea, etc. and no air bubble voids.
Its neutral taste and lack of odor is a patient-friendly material. Available in five lifelike shades: A1, A2, A3.5, B1 and Bleach Light.

“Having been in clinical practice for over 30 years and educating other dentists for the past 25, there are only a few products that stand out as the very best! One of these is Luxatemp. Since my initial use in 1996, to the restorative case I prepared and provisionalized yesterday, this is definitely a product I could not be without. Other provisional materials may claim they are equal to Luxatemp, but that is just not the case and no other provisional material has stood the test of time and proven its excellence like Luxatemp. I use it in my practice daily and it has been my material of choice in all of my live-patient hands-on courses for the past 20+ years.” — Dr. David S. Hornbrook |
