US No. 705 Bur – Busch Tapered Fissure Steel, Made in Germany
The US No. 705 is the American number for a tapered fissure bur with a 2.5 mm head (ISO size 025): a cone that narrows toward the tip, so the walls it cuts diverge toward the occlusal: the geometry crown and inlay preparations depend on. Busch & Co. manufactures it in Germany as Busch No. 38 025. Every US No. 705 on this page is a genuine Busch instrument and ships from our US warehouse.

Speed and Technique
Keep the bur parallel to the intended path of insertion so the taper of the head becomes the taper of the wall; the HP shank runs at laboratory speed in the straight handpiece. 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
- Laboratory and denture work: the HP steel No. 705 cuts acrylic, denture bases and plaster in the straight handpiece.
- Tapered reduction: the cone cuts walls with built-in taper, the same geometry used for crown and inlay walls.
At 2.5 mm the No. 705 is a wide cone for bulk reduction and laboratory cutting.
Care and Reconditioning
Busch steel 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.
