Busch Cool-Diamant Football (Egg) Bur | Busch No. CD 80G 023 – Coarse Grit – FG | Pack of 6

The coarse diamond dental bur football (egg) shape from Busch & Co. is a precision-engineered rotary instrument designed for demanding restorative and prosthodontic procedures. Part of the Cool-Diamant series, this bur combines a classic football (egg) (ovoid) geometry with coarse diamond grit to deliver efficient, controlled material removal in a single pass.

Key Features

• Shape: Football (Egg) (ovoid) profile for contoured access and smooth crown preparation
• Grit: Coarse — identified by the green ring coding — for aggressive cutting and rapid stock removal
• Series: Cool-Diamant, engineered to minimize heat generation during high-speed preparation
• Shank: FG (friction grip) for compatibility with standard high-speed handpieces
• Reference: CD 80G 023 FG
• Pack: Supplied in a convenient pack of 6
• Origin: Made in Germany

Instrument Dimensions

Per ISO 6360, the size number is the maximum head diameter in tenths of a millimeter. See our Busch Bur Size Chart for the full size conversion table, shank codes, and color ring guide.

Clinical Applications

The coarse diamond dental bur football (egg) shape is well suited for crown preparation and filling treatment — two of the most demanding tasks in daily clinical practice. Its ovoid geometry allows the clinician to create smooth axial walls and well-defined finish lines with consistent results.

Independent Research: Test Winner at Innsbruck

In an independent laboratory study at the Medical University of Innsbruck, Busch’s COOL DIAMANT design achieved the highest cutting performance in both test series — outperforming same-shape, same-grit diamonds from up to ten competing manufacturers. Under standardized conditions (200,000 rpm turbine, constant 152 g load, 10–40 minutes of continuous cutting on 99.5% Al₂O₃ ceramic), the COOL DIAMANT instrument removed significantly more material than burs from Diatech, Edenta, Horico and Komet (p < 0.05), and in the second series the standard Busch diamond placed second only to its cooling-groove sibling. The authors concluded that instruments with cooling grooves deliver higher grinding performance and need replacing less often.
