Foredom Silicone Point Flame 8x18mm Ultra C 2.35mm

Description:

Silicone Point Flame 8x18mm Ultra C represents the highest tier of abrasive strength within its category, designed for clinical situations requiring extensive material removal with minimal time investment. Its Ultra Coarse (Ultra C) formulation delivers the most aggressive cutting action, making it indispensable for bulk reduction of composite, resin, acrylic, and certain ceramics used in provisional restorations. The 8x18mm flame-shaped profile offers exceptional anatomical access, enabling clinicians to navigate large contours as well as narrow areas that require deep shaping. It is particularly helpful when adjusting overbuilt occlusal anatomy, reshaping provisional crowns and bridges, trimming excess composite from Class II and Class III restorations, and preparing materials for subsequent refinement. Mounted on a standard 2.35mm shank, it maintains compatibility with low-speed handpieces commonly used for adjustment procedures. Despite its extreme cutting power, the silicone structure helps absorb vibration, reducing operational noise and preventing the heat build-up typically associated with high-abrasion tools. This protects restorative materials from micro-cracking and enhances patient comfort. The Ultra C point is used exclusively in the earliest stage of a multi-step finishing sequence. Its ability to eliminate bulk discrepancies quickly allows clinicians to create a uniform foundation ready for further refinement using X-coarse, coarse, medium, and progressively finer grits. Engineered for longevity and strength, the silicone matrix resists tearing even under high pressure. This tool is perfect for specialists and general dentists performing heavy restorative adjustments, provisional modifications, or rapid contour corrections in demanding clinical situations.
