Busch Cool-Diamant Taper (Cone) Round Bur | Busch No. CD 48 016 – FG | Pack of 6
The cool diamant diamond dental bur CD 48 016 FG from Busch & Co. GmbH is a precision-engineered rotary instrument designed for demanding crown preparation procedures. Built to meet the exacting standards of modern restorative dentistry, this instrument delivers consistent, controlled cutting performance in clinical environments.
Product Overview
This pack of 6 features the Cool-Diamant series bur in a taper (cone) round geometry with medium grit diamond coating. The taper (cone) round shape is specifically suited for crown preparation, enabling clinicians to refine margins and taper axial walls with accuracy. The cool diamant diamond dental bur is engineered to reduce heat generation during cutting, helping to protect pulpal tissue and improve patient comfort.
Applications
The cool diamant diamond dental bur is well-suited for the following clinical procedures:
 |
Crown Preparation — Reduction of tooth structure to create the margins and clearance required for a crown. |

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.
