Radica Provisional & Diagnostic System
For your highly esthetic, premium all-ceramic crown and bridge cases, when a provisional is required, it is important to provide your patients with a quality product like the Radica Provisional & Diagnostic System
Radica® is a visible light cured, lab-processed provisional material that combines high flexural strength and durability with best-in-class esthetics. Radica’s excellent physical properties enable you to deliver highly-esthetic, long-term provisional appliances to your accounts. Its superior strength, durability and wear resistance allow clinicians to tackle full-mouth reconstruction and implant cases with ease.
The lab procedures are simple and the process allows for easy layering of dentin and enamel for outstanding esthetics. Radica’s biocompatible, monomer-free formulation and laboratory cure process promote lower levels of patient sensitivity.
A Radica provisional also functions as a premium try-in diagnostic. Because the provisional is cured prior to delivery, your dentists will have the ultimate presentation case that can be seated immediately if the patient is visually satisfied with the appliance.
