FAST SET TIME

“Template is a highly accurate silicone-based matrix material with a 30-second set time. This material has a faster setting time than most bite registration materials and better detail reproduction.” – Nate Lawson, DMD, PhD

He graduated from UAB School of Dentistry in 2011 and obtained his PhD in Biomedical Engineering in 2012. His research interests are the mechanical, optical, and biological properties of dental materials and clinical evaluation of new dental materials.

SUPERIOR DETAIL

“Creating a lingual matrix impression using Template results in a highly accurate, fast, and efficient means of quickly establishing the ideal lingual contours and incisal length to the final restoration within minutes of completing the mock-up.” – Megan Shelton, DMD, AAACD

Dr. Megan Shelton is a restorative and cosmetic dentist in Southern California. Dr. Shelton attended the University of Louisville

patients with complex problems. She is known as a leader in the industry for her implementation of digital dentistry, restorative
materials, and continuing education into her private practice and is now helping other dentists to do the same.

REDUCED FINISHING TIME

“The use of Template to create a lingual matrix is excellent at establishing the optimal lingual contour and incisal edge location of the restoration, ultimately resulting in significantly less finishing time.” – Ellen Katz, DDS

ACCURACY OF MATRIX

“Easy to dispense with fast work and set times, Template is a fantastic material to replicate the anatomy of the patient’s dentition, allowing for a beautiful temporary matrix.” – Chad Duplantis, DDS, FAGD

Dr. Chad Duplantis received his DDS from UTHSC San Antonio in 1999 and completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry program at Baylor College of Dentistry in 2000.

His interests are mainly in digital, implant, and restorative dentistry. In 2020, Dr. Duplantis co-founded the Facebook Group Dentists IN the Know, which is designed to keep the dental industry well-informed.

DIMENSIONALLY STABLE

“Template impressions, once set, can be kept as a permanent record that can be re-used in the event the temporary fails prior to cementation.” – Bob Margeas, DDS

Dr. Bob Margeas graduated from the University of Iowa College of Dentistry in 1986 and completed his AEGD residency the following year. He is currently an adjunct professor in the department of Operative Dentistry at the University of Iowa and maintains a full time private practice, focusing on comprehensive restorative and implant dentistry in Des Moines.
