Temporary fixed prostheses are cemented or screwed in and cannot be removed by the patient, and are made within the first week after implant placement.
In the two-stage implant method, a permanent fixed prosthesis cannot be made for the patient for 3 to 5 months after the implant placement. This is mainly due to the fact that the implant has not yet fused with the jawbone. During this period, temporary removable prostheses (palate) are made especially for aesthetic reasons at the request of the patient. However, with advancing technology and methods, the production of temporary fixed prostheses during this waiting period has also begun to be implemented by some clinics.
Temporary removable prostheses (palate) applied during the waiting period have significant disadvantages that affect the success of implant treatment due to aesthetic concerns, and therefore are not preferred by dentists, and patients are requested to spend the waiting period without teeth. These disadvantages are significantly minimized in fixed temporary prostheses.

Fixed temporary crowns are typically made by taking an impression of the patient's prepared tooth. This impression is used to create a mold or digital scan of the tooth that will be used to create the temporary crown. The temporary crown is usually made from a tooth-colored resin material that is shaped to fit over the prepared tooth. The material is then hardened using a special light or chemical process. Once the temporary crown is ready, it is cemented onto the prepared tooth using a temporary cement. The entire process can usually be completed in one office visit.

After the surgery, temporary implant impression components are placed in the patient's mouth to take the impression for the temporary prosthesis. This impression can be taken with traditional methods (using a silicone impression material) or with intraoral scanners. Based on this impression, custom-made implant abutments are produced to fit the patient's teeth and bone structure. In some cases, additional impressions may be taken over the implant abutments. Using advanced CadCam technology, a temporary PMMA prosthesis is produced for the patient. This prosthesis is placed in the patient's mouth and either cemented or screwed in place using temporary adhesive.
