Foredom Diamond Bur Ball Nose Xxc 23mm L 16mm D 2.35mm

Description:

Diamond bur Ball Nose XXC 23mm l 16mm d 2.35mm is a high-capacity rotary dental instrument engineered for substantial material removal across restorative and prosthodontic applications. With a 23 mm diameter and 16 mm abrasive head length, it provides an expansive working surface capable of reshaping large prosthetic units, modifying zirconia frameworks, and adjusting ceramic crowns or bridges that require significant structural refinement. The XXC (extra-extra-coarse) diamond grit ensures aggressive yet more controlled abrasion compared to XXXC-grade instruments, offering efficient cutting performance suitable for demanding contouring while maintaining a manageable tactile response. The ball-nose design enhances smooth, rounded shaping, making it ideal for modifying occlusal surfaces, contouring cusp slopes, and reducing broad anatomical areas without producing sharp transitions. Its size and grit allow clinicians or dental technicians to make rapid gross adjustments during crown or bridge fitting, especially when significant occlusal interference or excessive ceramic thickness is detected during try-in. In laboratory environments, it supports initial contouring phases before fine detail work, making it valuable for shaping monolithic zirconia restorations prior to glazing or staining. When used intraorally, abundant irrigation is essential to mitigate heat generation and maintain material integrity. The bur�s 2.35 mm shank ensures compatibility with standard contra-angle handpieces used for heavy restorative adjustments. After the initial reduction performed with this bur, finer-grit diamond instruments are typically employed to smooth the surface, establish uniform texture, and prepare the restoration for final polishing or finishing. Its durability and cutting efficiency make it indispensable for high-precision prosthetic fabrication and chairside modification tasks requiring controlled yet powerful material reduction.
