THE INNOVATIVE COMPOSITE BUR - Norsk Orthoform Depot AS

THE INNOVATIVE COMPOSITE BURSTAINBUSTER ® burs are designed to remove cement, stainsand colored coatings gently from the surface of the enamel;they do not abrade tooth enamel or ceramic and lightly grindcement, dentin and filling composites.The special characteristic of these burs is the fiber sectionswith abrasive power which cover the entire working surfaceand which split up into small fragments as and when they acton a hard surface. As the resin matrix is used up, new sectionsof fibers are exposed; STAINBUSTER ® burs are therefore selfsharpeningand maintain continuous abrasive power.The 14 µm diameter zircon-rich fiberglass has an interestingcharacteristic. Unlike ordinary fiberglass which splits intominuscule fibrils that can be extremely irritating to the skin andmucous membranes, zircon-rich fiberglass fragments into particleswhich are always longer than 5 µm with a length/diameterratio of over 3.The size of these fragments prevents them from being“breathable”. In other words, they cannot penetrate the alveolipulmonis, according to criteria and values defined by the WorldHealth Organization.This patented* characteristic allows the zircon-rich fiberglassto be used for dental burs that have permanent abrasivepower.* US PATENTS 6,860,738 and 6,386,874.

Whenthe work is completed, small residual particles give the sensationof a rough surface and, more importantly, are initiatornuclei in forming new calculus crystals. STAINBUSTER ® bursmake the tooth surface smooth and comfortable and delay tartarreformation.• Grinding of composite fillings, particularly composite surplusbetween the teeth where any other rotary instrument would belikely to harm the enamel: after using a STAINBUSTER ® bur, allthat is required is a final polish to make the teeth shine.• Easy removal of surplus cement after final sealing of ceramicprosthetic bridges or crowns without risk to the surroundingsoft tissues and the ceramics.• Elimination of temporary cement after removal of temporaryprostheses without risk of altering the definitive shape of thepreparations.By courtesy of Dr.CAVALLI

• Teeth scaling and cleaning: STAINBUSTER ® burs are notdesigned for heavy scaling. However, they can be used for lightmaintenance scaling and the resultant cleaning of the teeth.STUDY & COPYRIGHT: Pr. W.J.
