NexTemp from Premier is a resin based cement and does not contain either eugenol or zinc oxide, making it suitable for all temporary situations be they long or short term.

The chlorhexidine component of NexTemp acts as an antibacterial agent and the potassium nitrate part is a known desensitiser that sedates the pulp. The combination of these ingredients ensures that your temporary restorations will stay in place for as long as you need them.

Supplied in a controlled automix presentation to minimise waste, the chemically cured product goes through two phases during the setting period. The first 'rubbery' phase allows you to remove the excess material prior to the second and final hardening of the material and it will not shine through. It is available from Myerson.
