Why choose carbide burs
Carbide burs are particularly valued for their ability to cut cleanly through enamel and dentine. Compared to abrasive instruments, their bladed design allows for faster cutting with less pressure, supporting both clinician comfort and procedural efficiency.
Our range includes multiple shapes and sizes to suit different preparation techniques and preferences. For procedures that require finishing, contouring or working on ceramics, clinicians may also consider complementary options such as diamond burs, which offer a different cutting action suited to specific materials.
