Clinical Use

Nearly all burs in this collection are friction-grip (FG) diamonds for the high-speed handpiece: tapers, torpedoes and cylinders for crown and bridge preparation, rounds, pears and inverted cones for cavity and access preparation, footballs, wheels and the 899 for occlusal and lingual contouring, and flames for interproximal work. The grit sets the stage of the preparation, from super coarse (black ring) and coarse (green ring) for bulk reduction to fine (red ring) and extra fine (yellow ring) for finishing; see the Dental Bur Color Coding & ISO Guide. The Perio Pro diamonds are on an RA shank, and a few ZIRAMANT figures are on long FG shanks. For crown preparation steps by bur, see the Crown Preparation Margin Bur Guide.

Care and Reconditioning

Clean, disinfect and sterilize burs between patients following the manufacturer’s reprocessing instructions, and run each instrument within its recommended speed range. Our Dental Bur Reprocessing & Sterilization Guide covers the workflow for Busch rotary instruments, and the Dental Bur Speed Chart lists recommended speeds.
