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.
Made in Germany by Busch & Co.
Busch & Co. has manufactured rotary instruments in Engelskirchen, Germany since 1905. Every instrument on this page is a genuine Busch product, precision-ground on a concentric shank under ISO 13485-certified quality management and covered by our Busch warranty.
Clinical Use
-
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.
Care and Reconditioning
Busch carbide burs are reusable: clean, disinfect and sterilize them between patients following the manufacturer instructions and replace them once they dull. Our Dental Bur Reprocessing & Sterilization Guide gives the steps for Busch rotary instruments.
