— Cement manufacturing is a complex process that begins with mining and then grinding raw materials that include limestone and clay, to a fine powder, called raw meal, which is then heated to a sintering temperature as high as 1450 °C in a cement kiln.
— Temporary cementation is not just a small final step in a crown and bridge appointment, but the critical link in creating a well-sealed transitional restoration. The temporary cement creates a microbial barrier between the prosthesis and the tooth, helping to ensure that the pulp remains vital and dentin does not demineralize. Temporary …
