Polishing system for zirconia<br />
1SXM carbide bur from BUSCH<br />
DIAMOND INTERSPERSED<br />
POLISHERS FOR ZIRCONIA IN<br />
DENTAL TECHNOLOGY<br />
The disadvantage of zirconia is<br />
that it is difficult to process. For<br />
polishing after final corrections,<br />
it is necessary to use suitable<br />
diamond interspersed polishers to<br />
achieve satisfactory consolidation<br />
of the zirconia surface that can<br />
replace additional glaze firing.<br />
BUSCH, a manufacturer of dental<br />
tools including burs, cutters, and<br />
polishers, among others, has a<br />
two-stage polishing system<br />
tailored specifically for zirconia<br />
for polishing in the dental lab.<br />
Five different shapes are available<br />
to users depending on the<br />
requirements.<br />
The desired high shine polish can be<br />
achieved in two steps: the<br />
turquoise-yellow polishers are for<br />
pre-polish and the pink-yellow<br />
polishers are for high-shine polish.<br />
The final polish is equivalent to glaze<br />
firing, making an additional, timeconsuming<br />
firing process unnecessary.<br />
Minor corrections when inserting<br />
the restoration in the patient can<br />
thus be made quickly under optimal<br />
conditions in the practice lab in the<br />
same session.<br />
A CLEAR VIEW OF EVERYTHING<br />
Preserving as much healthy tooth<br />
substance as possible when repairing<br />
minor carious defects is one of<br />
the most important objectives in<br />
modern dental care. As such, BUSCH<br />
developed the 1SXM carbide bur<br />
that allows a gentle mode of operation<br />
without causing discomfort to the<br />
patient.<br />
The bur features a cutting geometry<br />
that allows the user to work in the<br />
cavity with low vibrations. Also, its<br />
slender neck permits a clearer view of<br />
the work area.<br />
In this way, carious can be removed<br />
specifically without damaging the tooth<br />
substance, while minimising the cavity<br />
opening and at the same time allowing a<br />
clear view of the excavation.<br />
In addition to the clear view, the slim<br />
neck enables a rapid outflow of chips.<br />
Besides the standard RA version, an<br />
RA-long version is also available to<br />
provide clear access to deeper areas. DA<br />
