The particles resulting from the removal of the temporary cement falls on the clinic floor, and contaminate the environment.

As all the temporary restorations are acrylic, and, as stated earlier, the cleaning process is mechanical, the main problem is breakage:
1. Breakage at the edges
2. Breakage of the bridge at a contact point
3. Perforation.

Until now, the use of sharp instruments were used. This procedure endanger the operator by accidental injuries. Temp-off removes this risk.

The removal of the temporary cement is performed by the dentist or his dental assistant; in both cases, this is a waste of their valuable Chair time!
