Evolution is important and often worth recognizing, especially in the context of dentistry. Seemingly small advances, such as acquiring a new digital tool or adding an improved technique to your workflow, have the ability to help you see a greater number of patients and increase productivity in the operatory, leading to long-term accomplishments for your practice.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of the launch of NeoDiamond burs, giving Microcopy something to celebrate: 30 years of refining single-patient-use diamonds into the fast-cutting, cost-cutting, reliable tools that they are today. Over the past 30 years, Microcopy has expanded globally while continuing to maintain its key focus—creating innovative, single-patient-use products that enable dentists to provide
better patient care.
Single-patient-use burs are an increasing trend in dentistry, as they ensure fresh, fast cutting for every patient, and free dentists from the maintenance that comes with reusable, quick-to-dull diamonds. Offering 20% more diamond cutting surface to penetrate zirconia, ceramic, porcelain-fused-to-metal, and gold crowns, NeoDiamond burs can be disposed of after one use—saving clinicians time between patient visits and offering protection against cross-contamination. Affordable pricing eliminates the need to recoup expenses after having to replace reusable burs.
Innovation Dentists Notice
While much has changed since NeoDiamond launched in 1989—the product line now consists of 126 shapes in various grits, with 6 new pediatric short-shank diamond burs available—these diamond burs have been and continue to be designed for optimal safety and performance. Clinicians like Dr.
Sherwood Tucker have noticed their reliability.
“When a bur or diamond is not concentric—meaning it is bent or the diamond particles are not evenly spaced—there can be a slight wobble when it’s in motion,” the Eagle Butte, SD, clinician explained, adding that using a bur in this condition can damage the handpiece rotor or the tooth. “NeoDiamond burs, in my experience, must have great quality control because I’ve never had this problem since I started using them.”
Designed with cutting-edge Triton bonding technology that fastens diamonds to the shank with superior hardness and maximum longevity, NeoDiamond includes multiple shapes and styles for a variety of clinical uses—including spiral, guide-pin, crown-and-bridge, and endodontic. Each bur is individually wrapped for effective infection control and visible through a clear, white poly packet.
“I know each diamond is sterile, so my patients are safe from cross-contamination,” Dr. Tucker concluded.
4 Benefits of Single-Use Burs:
