Clinical Applications
The cool diamant fine grit diamond dental bur is well suited for two primary clinical procedures. Its flame geometry and fine diamond coating support controlled, smooth reduction during crown preparation, allowing clinicians to achieve accurate marginal detail and consistent preparation depths. It is equally appropriate for filling treatment procedures where refined surface finishing and contour refinement are required.

- Filling Treatment
Why Choose the Cool Diamant Series?
Busch & Co. GmbH has a long-standing reputation for manufacturing high-quality rotary instruments in Germany. The Cool Diamant line is engineered to minimize heat generation during cutting, which helps protect both the tooth structure and the pulp during extended procedures. The cool diamant fine grit diamond dental bur delivers consistent cutting efficiency while maintaining the smooth finish expected from a fine grit instrument.
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.
