Temporary teeth, also referred to as provisional temporaries, play a crucial role in the dental implant process. After implant surgery, while waiting for the final crowns to be fabricated, temporary teeth are placed on the implants to provide aesthetics and function.

These removable temporaries mimic the appearance and shape of natural teeth, allowing patients to chew, speak, and smile comfortably during the healing period. Temporary teeth also help maintain proper tooth alignment and prevent surrounding teeth from shifting.

Dentists carefully design and adjust these temporary restorations to ensure a secure fit and patient satisfaction. Proper care and oral hygiene are essential during this phase to preserve the integrity of the implants and promote successful osseointegration.

Once the custom-made crowns are ready, the removable temporary teeth are replaced with the permanent restorations, providing patients with a seamless and long-lasting solution that restores their smile and oral function.
