KOMET USA’s marketing/pr campaign continued to grow within the dental market. S-Diamonds grew in popularity because of its rapid material removal. Dr. George Freedman covered the burs in his monthly First Impression column.

S-Diamond Burs
The preparation and delivery of crowns is one of the most basic tasks of the typical dental practice. For the dentist, single crowns often represent the financial foundation of a successful business. Complicating the task of time management in the restorative practice is the primary preparation of the crown abutment. In fact, this is one of the most time-consuming procedures in most offices.

Thus, the efficiency of the tooth preparation process is of major concern to many practitioners. KOMET USA recently introduced its S-Diamonds, innovative cutting in-struments that feature structured preparation surfaces, faceted with alternating blank and coarse grit. This arrangement provides effective and rapid removal of tooth structures while at the same time ensuring an improved cooling of the tooth surface as it is being cut. The faceting of the blank section reduces clogging and heat generation.

On inspection, the bur design is seen as a series of staggered plane surfaces and multiple edge structures. These features have been scientifically combined to increase the speed and comfort of tooth preparation. This design, in turn, significantly reduces the time involved in crown preparation when compared to conventional diamond instruments. By removing more tooth structure in a given amount of time, the S-Diamonds make tooth preparations easier, more comfortable, less stressful, and ultimately more rapid. The chairside time savings, the faster bulk reduction, the onsite cooling, and the gentler treatment all translate into improved patient care and comfort.
