INTRODUCTION: The temporary fixed denture is an important part of the treatment, being an intermediate phase necessary for the manufacture of the definitive denture. OBJECTIVE: Present materials and their properties; as well as the techniques for making provisionals in Fixed Prosthesis, through an integrative literature review. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Search for the articles took place in the BVS and PubMed, published in portuguese and english, between 2000 and 2020. The search strategy used was: (Denture, Partial, Temporary) AND (Polymers) AND (Denture, Partial, Fixed) AND ("Dental Prosthesis" OR "Flexural Strength" OR "Dental Polishing"). The inclusion criteria were complete studies and available; studies of temporary fixed denture on teeth. The exclusion criteria were studies of provisional prostheses on implants. The complete data of the selected texts were extracted by the reviewers. Techniques for temporary fixed denture were presented regarding the stages of preparation, literature reviews and case reports. RESULTS: The studies addressed the application of different materials and techniques, in addition to laboratory research being prevalent. There was a heterogeneity between study objects and variables, with emphasis on the use of different polymers, techniques and adding reinforcement. CONCLUSION: The revised literature presented several of temporary materials. The techniques reported were the use of silicone mold, acetate matrix and CAD / CAM. And the most common techniques to be performed in the daily clinic were adaptation of the stock facet (on the preparation tooth and endodontically treated tooth), adapted resin or ball and silicone mold or matrix.
