Foredom Cup Brush-White Bristle 12mm Dia. 9.5mm L 2.35 Mm

Description:

Cup brush-white bristle 12mm dia. 9.5mm l 2.35mm is a versatile dental polishing brush designed for procedures that require moderate abrasiveness and broader surface coverage. Natural white bristle fibers provide greater stiffness compared to goat or horse hair, making this brush effective for intermediate finishing stages, where clinicians must remove surface irregularities before final high-gloss polishing. The 12mm cup-shaped head allows the brush to engage wide surface areas such as composite facings, buccal restorations, denture acrylic, and provisional materials. The shape ensures even pressure distribution and improved polishing efficiency. With a 9.5mm bristle length, the brush remains flexible enough to adapt to curved surfaces while maintaining the firmness needed for effective smoothing. Its 2.35mm shank fits standard slow-speed handpieces, ensuring compatibility in both laboratory and clinical environments. This brush is particularly useful when transitioning from abrasive contouring to final polishing. It helps remove small scratches, blend anatomical features, and prepare surfaces for high-gloss finishing tools. Due to its slightly firmer nature, it is effective when working with materials requiring more mechanical action, such as acrylic-based prosthetics, orthodontic appliances, or preliminary composite finishes. Although firmer than goat or horse hair, the brush still operates gently enough to avoid damaging the surface when used at appropriate speeds. It can be used with a variety of polishing agents, including pumice, prepolish compounds, and fine abrasives. Ideal for both restorative dentistry and prosthodontic work, this white bristle cup brush is a reliable mid-stage polishing instrument that supports efficient and consistent restorative finishing.
