US No. 330 Bur – Busch Pear Carbide, Made in Germany

The US No. 330 is the American number for a pear bur with a 0.8 mm head (ISO size 008): a rounded, slightly tapered head that cuts a preparation with rounded internal line angles and no sharp corners. Busch & Co. manufactures it in Germany as Busch No. 7 008. Every US No. 330 on this page is a genuine Busch instrument and ships from our US warehouse.

Which US No. 330 Do You Need?

Clinical Uses of the US No. 330

Conservative Class I and Class II preparations: the pear outline removes only what is needed and leaves rounded internal angles that suit composite and amalgam alike.
Minimally invasive access: opening a fissure or a small lesion without extending the preparation beyond the defect.
Refining internal form: smoothing line angles and slight undercuts in an existing preparation.

At 0.8 mm the No. 330 is the classic small pear for minimal preparations.

Speed and Technique

Use in the high-speed handpiece with water spray, entering with the tip and shaping with the sides in short strokes; the rounded form does the finishing of the internal angles for you. Maximum recommended speeds for every Busch shape are in our Dental Bur Speed Chart, and reprocessing steps in the Bur Sterilization Guide.
