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 composite and ceramic restorations in the dental practice ^{[1, 2]}

Areas of application

• Polishing of composite resin fillings ^[2]
• Polishing of restorations made of glass-ceramics, feldspathic ceramics and oxide ceramics ^{[1, 2]}
