The Johnson Promident Carbide Bur FG #118S 5/Pk is a specialized, high-quality rotary dental instrument designed specifically for orthodontic adhesive removal. This bur is characterized as a Friction Grip (FG) Short Shank (S suffix) bur, making it ideal for use in high-speed handpieces, particularly in areas with limited access in the posterior region or for patients with restricted opening.
It is primarily a Finishing Bur, typically featuring a high number of blades, often 18 blades, to ensure a smooth, efficient, and controlled cut that removes residual adhesive after orthodontic bracket debonding while minimizing trauma to the enamel. The bur is constructed from high-grade tungsten carbide for superior strength, concentricity, and durability. Specifications for the bur head are approximately 1.6?mm in diameter (though some sources suggest a range of 1.2?mm to 1.5?mm) and a head length of approximately 5.2?mm for the short version, making it perfectly suited for precise polishing and cleanup.
If you're searching for a highly effective and reliable tool for superior orthodontic adhesive cleanup after bracket debonding, the best orthodontic adhesive removal carbide bur is a definitive choice for any dental professional.
