Foredom Silicone Point Wheel 12x2mm X-Coarse 2.35mm

Description:

Silicone Point Wheel 12x2mm X-Coarse 2.35mm is a high-removal dental abrasive designed for intensive reshaping tasks that require significant material reduction. Its extra-coarse grit enables rapid contour modification, making it ideal for correcting major discrepancies in restorative anatomy or preparing surfaces for more refined finishing procedures. Clinicians commonly rely on this tool to reduce overbuilt composite restorations, reshape large occlusal adjustments, remove flashing from provisional restorations, and modify ceramic restorations during initial adjustment phases. Despite its aggressive performance, the silicone-bonded abrasive structure ensures smoother operation than traditional stones, helping maintain control and minimize unexpected gouging. Laboratory technicians benefit from this wheel for shaping zirconia frameworks, modifying ceramic copings, and reducing bulk material before detailed contour work. Its 12x2mm size strikes a balance between accessibility and surface area, enabling use in both broad and moderately confined areas. The tool maintains reliable performance even under continuous use because its abrasive particles fracture gradually, ensuring consistent cutting efficiency. The 2.35mm shank ensures compatibility with standard contra-angle handpieces, allowing the wheel to operate smoothly at variable speeds without significant vibration. Careful handling is advised due to its high cutting strength, but when used correctly, it greatly improves workflow efficiency. Overall, the Silicone Point Wheel 12x2mm X-Coarse 2.35mm is indispensable for aggressive reduction tasks, enabling fast reshaping with predictable control in both clinical and laboratory environments.
