Purpose: This study investigated the effect of different matrices and application of a desensitizer on pulpal temperature rise during direct provisionalization. Materials and Methods: The apical third of a second premolar was resected and pulpal tissue was removed. Silicone heat-conducting medium was injected, and a J-type thermocouple was inserted into the pulp chamber and sealed. The tooth was embedded in acrylic resin with its cervical line 1 mm higher than the base. Addition and condensation silicone impression materials were mixed and placed inside plastic molds. Impressions were taken before tooth preparation. The tooth was then prepared with a 1.5-mm shoulder finish line. The experimental model was kept in a 36 °C water bath. Four provisional materials were applied in sequence onto the prepared tooth using matrices. Each provisional resin was used in combination with each matrix (n = 12). Then a dentin desensitizer was coated on the prepared tooth and provisionalizations were made in the same manner. The thermocouple was connected to the data-logger. During setting of the resins, pulp temperatures were recorded and transferred to the computer. Measurements were conducted for each test group by calculating the temperature rise as the difference between the start and highest temperature reading. Results: The type of the silicone matrix used and the use of desensitizer did not affect the intrapulpal heat generation during direct provisionalization. Conclusion: Application of a desensitizer and different type of matrix seems to be noneffective on intrapulpal heat rise, although the type of provisional material used may be effective.
