Frequently Asked Questions

Product

What are FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs used for in dentistry?

FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs are specifically designed for adjusting zirconia restorations while maintaining surface integrity. Their unique structure and durable coating allow for precise adjustments without causing micro fractures, chipping or rough surfaces.

Primary Uses:
 ✔ Adjusting zirconia crowns & bridges - Ensures a precise occlusal fit and proper contact points.
✔ Refining margins - Smooths out restoration edges without compromising strength.
✔ Fine tuning occlusion - Prevents excessive wear or discomfort for patients.

Unlike traditional diamond burs, ZirconIT© burs are engineered for harder materials, allowing for controlled, efficient cutting without excessive heat buildup.

How are FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs different from standard diamond burs?

FG ZirconIT© burs differ from standard diamond burs in composition, cutting efficiency and material compatibility.

✔ Designed for Zirconia - Unlike standard diamond burs, ZirconIT© burs cut efficiently through zirconia and other high strength ceramics without micro fracturing the material.
✔ Longer Lifespan - The specialized abrasive surface lasts longer when used on zirconia, reducing bur replacement frequency.
✔ Less Heat Generation - Overheating zirconia can cause internal fractures, but these burs are optimized to minimize heat production, preserving the restoration's integrity.

💡 When to use a standard diamond bur instead?

  • For adjusting composite or enamel, a standard diamond bur may work better.
  • If fine polishing is needed after adjustments, use a dedicated zirconia polishing system.

What ISO numbers are available for FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs?

Each variation of the FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs has a unique ISO number, ensuring precision selection for different procedural needs.

One variation has a head diameter of 0.18mm and head length of 1.8mm, with ISO number Z001-018ADJ.

Another variation features a head diameter of 0.22mm and head length of 2.2mm, with ISO number Z001-022ADJ.

💡 Why ISO Numbers Matter?
✔ Ensures standardized identification across different dental supply manufacturers.
✔ Helps in inventory management and bulk ordering accuracy.
✔ Guarantees the exact size and grit selection for clinical precision.

How long do FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs last and how can I extend their lifespan?

The lifespan of FG ZirconIT© burs depends on usage frequency, case complexity, and proper maintenance. On average, they last significantly longer than standard diamond burs when used exclusively for zirconia adjustments.

🔹Factors Affecting Lifespan:

  • Excessive pressure: Can prematurely wear down the bur’s surface.
  • Inadequate cooling: Zirconia generates heat quickly, so always use water spray.
  • Incorrect use: Using these burs on materials other than zirconia can reduce their cutting efficiency.

🔹 Tips to Extend Lifespan:
✅ Use light, controlled pressure  - Let the bur do the work.
✅ Always operate with water spray cooling  - Prevents overheating and extends sharpness.
✅ Store burs in a designated bur block  - Avoids unnecessary damage from contact with other instruments.

How do I properly sterilize and maintain FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs?

Proper sterilization is essential to prevent contamination, maintain cutting efficiency, and extend bur life. Follow these steps:

✔ Step 1: Rinse Immediately
 After each use, rinse under running water to remove composite, saliva, and debris.

✔ Step 2: Ultrasonic Cleaning
 Soak burs in an enzymatic cleaner and place them in an ultrasonic cleaner for 5 10 minutes.

✔ Step 3: Dry Thoroughly
 Ensure burs are completely dry before autoclaving to prevent corrosion.

✔ Step 4: Autoclave at 134°C (273°F)
 Follow the recommended settings for proper sterilization without damaging the bur's cutting surface.

✔ Step 5: Store in a Bur Block
 Avoid placing burs loosely in drawers where they can rub against other burs, which can degrade the cutting surface.

💡 Common Mistakes to Avoid:
🚫 Avoid harsh brushes  - They can strip the cutting surface prematurely.
🚫 Do not use dry heat sterilization  - It may shorten the lifespan of zirconia burs.
🚫 Never autoclave damp burs  - Moisture can cause micro pitting over time.

Can FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs be used on materials other than zirconia?

While these burs are specifically designed for adjusting zirconia restorations, they can also be used for other high strength ceramics, such as:

✔ Lithium disilicate (e.g., IPS e.max restorations) - Efficient for minor adjustments without excessive chipping.
✔ Alumina based ceramics - Provides controlled cutting for harder materials.
✔ Hybrid ceramic restorations - Smooth adjustments without roughening the surface.

🚫 What they should NOT be used on:

  • Metal restorations - These burs are optimized for ceramic cutting, and using them on metal can dull the abrasive coating.
  • Natural enamel and dentin - Standard diamond burs are more suitable for tooth adjustments.

What speed (RPM) should I use when working with FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs?

To ensure efficient cutting and prevent overheating, it’s recommended to operate these burs within the following RPM range:

  • For 0.18:
    ✔ Recommended Operational Speed: 55,000  - 160,000 RPM
    ✔ Maximum Allowed Speed: 450,000 RPM
  • For 0.22:
    ✔ Recommended Operational Speed: 40,000  - 120,000 RPM
    ✔ Maximum Allowed Speed: 300,000 RPM

💡 Why is the right RPM important?

  • Using too low of an RPM can lead to excessive pressure, reducing bur efficiency.
  • Using too high of an RPM may cause friction induced overheating, potentially damaging the zirconia.

Always ensure adequate water spray cooling to maintain smooth cutting performance and prevent micro fractures.

How do FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs prevent chipping and fractures in zirconia restorations?

Zirconia is an extremely hard yet brittle material, meaning that improper cutting can lead to chipping, micro fractures, or even restoration failure. FG ZirconIT© burs are designed with special abrasive properties that ensure:

✔ Controlled material removal  - Prevents aggressive cutting that could damage the structure.
✔ Reduced heat generation  - Prevents internal fractures caused by overheating.
✔ Fine, even cutting surfaces  - Leaves behind a smoother finish, reducing the need for excessive polishing.

💡 Pro Tip: Always use light pressure and water irrigation while adjusting zirconia to maintain its integrity.

Do FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs require polishing after adjustments?

Yes, polishing zirconia after adjustments is highly recommended to restore its smooth surface and minimize wear on opposing teeth. After using an FG ZirconIT© bur, follow these steps:

✔ Step 1: Fine tune with a zirconia specific polishing bur - Helps smooth out any minor roughness.
✔ Step 2: Use a two step zirconia polishing system - Start with a pre-polisher and finish with a high gloss polisher.
✔ Step 3: Avoid glazing unless necessary - Over polishing can reduce the natural translucency of zirconia.

💡 Why is polishing important?

  • Reduces surface roughness - preventing excessive wear on opposing teeth.
  • Helps in patient comfort - making restorations feel smooth and natural.
  • Enhances longevity - ensuring the zirconia restoration stays intact.

What makes FG ZirconIT© ADJ Round 801 Burs better than other zirconia adjustment burs?
