Busch Cool-Diamant Pointed Bur | Busch No. CD 55 014 – FG | Pack of 6
The cool diamant diamond dental bur medium grit from Busch & Co. GmbH is engineered for clinicians who demand precision, control, and consistent performance in every procedure. This pointed diamond bur (CD 55 014 FG) delivers reliable cutting efficiency across a range of restorative and prosthodontic applications.
Independently tested. In the Medical University of Innsbruck cutting study, Busch’s cooling-groove diamond achieved the highest total cutting length of every bur tested over 40 minutes of continuous use. Read the Innsbruck Study.
Key Features
- Shape: Pointed (tapered tip) for precise access and preparation
- Grit: Medium — ideal for controlled material removal and shaping
- Series: Cool Diamant, designed to reduce heat generation during cutting
- Pack Size: 6 burs per pack, offering excellent clinical value
- Made in Germany — manufactured to stringent quality standards
Applications
The cool diamant diamond dental bur medium grit is well-suited for crown preparation and filling treatment, providing the tactile feedback and cutting consistency required for accurate margin definition and cavity refinement. Its pointed geometry allows access to restricted areas without compromising surrounding tooth structure.
The cool diamant diamond dental bur medium grit is well-suited for the following clinical procedures:
 |
Crown Preparation — Reduction of tooth structure to create the margins and clearance required for a crown. |
 |
Filling Treatment — Contouring, finishing and polishing of amalgam and composite restorations. |
German Engineering You Can Trust
Busch & Co. GmbH has a long-standing reputation for producing high-quality rotary instruments. Each cool diamant diamond dental bur medium grit is crafted in Germany, reflecting a commitment to dimensional accuracy and long-lasting abrasive performance that dental professionals expect.
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.

The pointed (needle) head opens fissures, slices interproximally and refines fine occlusal anatomy, and its COOL DIAMANT cooling grooves reduce heat build-up in use. A 1.4 mm head is a mid-range size that works on both anterior and posterior preparations. The medium coating balances removal rate and surface quality, making it the all-round grit for the main preparation.
