ORTHODONTICS

Orthodontic dentistry is all about precision, balance, and control — guiding each tooth into harmony while preserving enamel integrity. Our orthodontic burs are designed for the key finishing stages of treatment, from adhesive removal and enamel polishing to contouring and clean-up after debonding. With smooth, efficient cutting and superior tactile feedback, they help clinicians work precisely and comfortably around delicate tooth surfaces. Each bur is pre-sterilized and ensures consistent, dependable performance, supporting safe, efficient procedures and beautifully polished results — the perfect finishing touch to every smile.

BRACKETS

The NeoBurr 12-blade carbides are the most popular burs for clearing away resin after the brackets have been applied or removed. The burs are available in a variety of shapes that facilitate removal of excess material around the brackets and tubes, removal of layers of resin spread across large tooth surfaces and clearance of concentrated lumps of resin.

ALIGNERS

For effective removal of composite, it is recommended to use a combination of diamond and carbide burs. A diamond bur should be used to clear away most of the composite, and when nearing the tooth enamel, a carbide bur should be used to remove the remaining material. This combination allows for maximum cutting efficiency while safeguarding the enamel.

Microcopy offers a variety of coarse and extra coarse diamond cylinder shaped burs. With Microcopy’s NeoDiamond pre-sterilized burs, you are guaranteed a fresh and clean cut and quick removal of composite.

INTERPROXIMAL (IPR) REDUCTION

When IPR is required to facilitate better orthodontic tooth alignment, it is recommended to use a NeoDiamond Interdental bur.

POLISHING

After the removal of resin or composite, it is advised to use a NeoBurr 30-blade bur, which has an extra fine grit, to gently polish the tooth. As a final step in the procedure, NeoShine polishers should be used to smoothen the outer surface of the tooth and restore luster.

GOLD PLATED BURS & NEODRYS

Microcopy’s gold-plated burs provide optimal light reflection when treating posterior teeth, and for added clarity, it is recommended to use the NeoDrys saliva absorbents with a reflective backing.
