An Assessment of Burs Designed to Cut Zirconia

Abstract: Objective: Zirconia is increasingly being used in restorative dentistry but its removal is often a difficult procedure due to its resistance to cutting with conventional diamond burs. Zirconia cutting burs have been developed and this study aims to compare 4 such burs. Methods: 35 experienced restorative dentists selected from our Practice Based Network (PBN) were asked to evaluate the cutting of a 1 mm groove into zirconia using 4 burs A (Meisinger), B (ZR2-1 experimental bur from DIATECH), C (Komet) & D (DIA… Show more

“…The manufacturers of zirconia-cutting burs claim (30) to utilise a patented technology to increase bonding strength between the nickel plating of the bur and the diamond grit particles. However, in the subsequent fiveminute cut, the blue band diamond bur demonstrated a significant reduction in cutting efficiency compared to the zirconia-cutting bur.…”

“…Monolithic zirconia restorations have many advantages such as enabling for minimal invasive tooth preparation, causing minimal wear on the opposing teeth and exhibiting high flexural strength. Besides, these restorations can be produced in the laboratory with computer-assisted manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems in a short time without adding any porcelain [1]- [6]. In recent years thanks to the production and the use of high translucent monolithic zirconia materials, the esthetic success of restorations has increased [7].…”
