ROTO-PRO Periodontic Burs by Busch
ROTO-PRO Periodontic Burs by Busch are precision-engineered rotosonic scaling instruments designed for the safe, controlled removal of calculus and residue during periodontal therapy. Manufactured by Busch & Co. GmbH, a long-established name in German dental rotary instrument production, these burs feature a polygonal working part without sharp edges, engineered to treat tooth and root surfaces safely without injuring hard tooth structure or the surrounding soft tissue.
Key Features
-
Non-Cutting, Polygonal Design: A multi-sided (typically 6- to 8-sided) working part with no sharp cutting edges, built to work safely against root and tooth surfaces.
-
Rotary Ultrasonics: When mounted in a high-speed handpiece, the polygonal geometry produces rapid rotary micro-vibrations — a fracturing effect that breaks down hard calculus deposits while leaving healthy enamel and root surface unharmed.
-
FG Shank: Compatible with standard high-speed handpieces used in periodontal and general practice.
-
Precision Engineering: Manufactured to strict dimensional tolerances for consistent, repeatable clinical performance.
-
Practice-Ready Packs: Supplied in packs of 6 for consistent clinical supply.
Applications
As rotosonic scalers, ROTO-PRO Periodontic Burs are used to break down and remove tough calculus deposits from tooth surfaces and below the gumline without gouging the root surface. Their non-cutting, polygonal design lets clinicians work with confidence close to the gingiva and root cementum, combining the mechanical efficiency of a rotary handpiece with the tissue-sparing control more commonly associated with ultrasonic scaling.
Why Choose Busch?
Busch & Co. GmbH has a long-standing reputation in German dental instrument manufacturing. Their commitment to precision engineering and consistent quality control makes ROTO-PRO Periodontic Burs a dependable choice for clinicians who need reliable, tissue-sparing calculus removal.

FAQ
What are ROTO-PRO Periodontic Burs used for? They are used as rotosonic scalers to break down and remove tough calculus deposits from tooth surfaces and below the gumline during periodontal therapy.
How do they remove calculus without cutting the root surface? Their working part is polygonal rather than sharp-edged. Mounted in a high-speed handpiece, this geometry produces rapid rotary micro-vibrations that fracture hard calculus deposits without cutting into enamel or root surface.
Are these burs compatible with standard handpieces? Yes. ROTO-PRO Periodontic Burs use an FG shank compatible with standard high-speed handpieces.
Who manufactures these burs? They are manufactured by Busch & Co. GmbH, a long-established German dental rotary instrument manufacturer.
