Komet USA this week announced a new bur kit for dentists and laboratory technicians who work with zirconium, the Zirconium Abutment Preparation Diamond Kit LD 0118.
Because margins in some selected zirconium-custom abutments do not have enough incisal or occlusal clearance, a technician or dentist can now easily modify the abutments themselves with the burs provided in this easy-to-use kit, according to the company.
The kit contains a series of five burs: two tapered burs (ZR850.314.016 medium grit and ZR8850.314.016 fine grit) for refining axial walls, two other burs (ZR6881.314.016 and ZR6881.314.012) are wide and narrow coarse grit diamonds for establishing a chamfer margin that follows the soft-tissue scallop, and the ZR6379.314.023 football-shaped diamond bur is used for palatal or lingual reduction for occlusal clearance.
