Using chemo-mechanically assisted diamond bur cutting for improved efficiency

Article Abstract:

Dentists can prolong the life of their high-speed drills by putting some alcohol or mouthwash into the coolant. This can prolong the service life of the drill by 50% or more compared to water irrigation only. Coolant must be used to keep the drill from creating too much heat that could damage the tooth.

Article Abstract:

Coarser-grit diamond burs can remove more tooth material than medium-grit burs but may have adverse effects on enamel. Dentists should keep this in mind when using the coarse- and super-coarse-grit burs.
