Foredom Silicone Point Flame 8x18mm Extra Fine 2.35mm

Description:

Silicone Point Flame 8x18mm Extra Fine is designed to deliver advanced pre-polishing capabilities for clinicians working on direct and indirect restorations. This tool provides smoother finishing than fine grit points while still offering enough abrasive strength for subtle contour corrections on composites, ceramics, zirconia-reinforced materials, and enamel. The elongated flame shape facilitates precise handling in areas that are typically harder to reach, such as embrasures, interproximal contacts, incisal angles, and posterior occlusal grooves. Its 8x18mm dimensions offer an ideal balance between reach and flexibility, promoting improved adaptation to natural tooth anatomy. The result is an even, refined surface ready for ultra-fine polishing. Mounted on a universal 2.35mm shank, this point fits seamlessly into standard slow-speed handpieces used in restorative and cosmetic procedures. Its gentle abrasive power prevents excessive material removal, enabling clinicians to preserve natural contours while optimizing restorative surface quality. The silicone matrix is engineered for durability, consistent particle distribution, and reduced vibration. These characteristics ensure predictable results during prolonged use, maintaining uniform abrasion and preventing heat accumulation. This makes the point suitable for sensitive patients and delicate restorative materials. Clinically, the extra-fine grit serves as a crucial intermediate stage after fine grit use and before the ultra-fine final gloss. It enhances restoration longevity by creating smoother surfaces that resist plaque, staining, and wear�essential for high-aesthetic dental outcomes.
