3M RelyX Temp NE Zinc Oxide Cement
3M RelyX Temp NE is a zinc oxide non-eugenol temporary cement used to secure provisional crowns and bridges while allowing easy removal later.
The 3M RelyX Temp Zinc Oxide Non-Eugenol Temporary Cement is used to secure temporary and provisional restorations to a prepared tooth or an implant abutment while the patient's final restoration is being made. Being formulated without eugenol makes it compatible with resin-based permanent cements that eugenol can otherwise interfere with, an important consideration for dentists planning to bond a resin cement at the final cementation stage.
The cement is designed to strike a balance between two competing needs, providing strong enough adhesion to keep the provisional securely in place during everyday function, while still allowing the dentist to remove it without excessive force or risk of damaging the underlying preparation when the final restoration is ready.
This product is transitioning in branding from 3M to Solventum RelyX Temp NE Temporary Cement. General dentists and prosthodontists use temporary cements like this one routinely whenever a provisional restoration is placed. Dental practices across the UAE and GCC performing crown, bridge and implant restorative work commonly stock this cement as a standard consumable.
