OptraGloss

The universal polisher

One polishing system for composite and ceramic restorations[1, 2].

OptraGloss is a universal polishing system for extraoral and intraoral use. It is suitable for the high-gloss polishing dental restorations made of composite resin and ceramics[1, 2].

OptraGloss consists of a dark-blue diamond polisher for pre-polishing and a light-blue diamond polisher for high-gloss polishing. For the one-step polishing of composite resin fillings, only the high-gloss polisher is required. The polishers are available in the shapes “Cup”, “Flame”, “Lens” and now also “Spiral Wheel” (only as high-gloss polisher)[2, 3].

Advantages
  • Due to a high diamond content of up to 70%wt, excellent polishing results are ensured[2, 3]
  • Particularly smooth and shiny restoration surfaces[1, 2]
  • No additional polishing paste needed[2, 5]
  • Two-step high-gloss polishing of ceramic restorations[2]
  • One system for all popular indications in the dental practice[1, 2]
Areas of application
  • Polishing of composite resin fillings[1, 2]
  • Polishing of restorations made of glass-ceramics, feldspathic ceramics and oxide ceramics[2]
