What's Occlusal Reduction?

Occlusal reduction is a precise technique used to create space for restorations, ensuring proper fit, material thickness, and occlusal alignment. As a critical preparatory step, it enhances the accuracy, durability, and longevity of prosthetic restorations.

Occlusal Reduction in 2025

As technology and advanced ceramics evolve, achieving precise occlusal reduction is more important than ever. The key challenges include ensuring uniform depth, preventing over-reduction, and preserving tooth structure.

Traditional methods often result in inconsistent reduction, prolonged chair time, and compromised restoration fit. Freehand techniques increase the risk of overcutting or inadequate clearance, affecting long-term durability.

The solution? Advanced occlusal reduction bur that offers precise depth control, efficient cutting, and consistent reduction, ensuring optimal space all crown and bridge restorations.

Special Occlusal Reduction Burs

Eagle Occlusal Reduction Burs feature a coarse diamond grit for fast cutting through tooth structure. Their unique design ensures precise depth control, preventing over-reduction. Ideal for all PFM, PFZ, Gold and All Ceramic Crowns and Bridges.

To effectively remove debris during the procedure, we recommend using ample water for cooling. Each pack contains 5 high-quality FG burs, made in Israel.

OccluFinishers - The Ultimate Composite Finishing Burs

(Designed by Dr. Patrick Roetzer, Inventor of the R.A.P.T.O.R System)

The OccluFinishers are the ultimate composite finishing solution, crafted for smooth, precise, and easy sculpting—perfect for the new generation of composites.

What Makes Them Special?

• Ergonomic Design: Promotes vertical carving, so no more neck craning.

• Time Saver: Boost productivity by cut finishing and polishing time by up to 50%.

• Versatile: Ideal for all cavity classes: Amalgam, Composite, and Glass Ionomers.

• Protective: Diamond-free safe edges prevent enamel damage.
  

Burs Profile:

1. PR151 - Fine Small Acorn (1.0-1.5 mm)

   • Perfect for secondary anatomy, occlusal adjustments, fissurotomies, pediatric restorations, and slot/box-only preps.

2. PR262 - Fine Medium Acorn (1.5-2.0 mm)

   • Ideal for first-time restorations with precise cusp-line control.

3. PR261 - Fine Large Acorn (2.5-3.0 mm)

   • Designed for replacement restorations and BIOCLEAR techniques. Features a wide safe-edge/limit-stop to prevent deep cuts or enamel nicks.

4. K303 - Extra Extra Fine 50/50 X-Mas Tree (15μm grit)

   • For finishing small Class I, II, and V restorations. Only the diamond-coated surface touches the composite.

5. K305 - Extra Extra Fine 80/20 X-Mas Tree (15μm grit)

   • Perfect for larger Class I, II, and V restorations. Offers controlled polishing without risking enamel damage.

Why You’ll Love It:

• Easy, Repeatable Sculpting: Achieve natural anatomy effortlessly.

• Diamond-Free Safe Edges: Maximum control, no over-carving.

• Acorn Shape: Mimics occlusal anatomy perfectly.

• Protects Adjacent Enamel: No nicks, no scars.

• 50% Time Reduction: More efficiency, less effort.

How It Works:

Simply drop the acorn bur into natural pits, then glide it between cusps to define occlusal anatomy. The 50-micron diamond particles ensure effective reduction, while the safe-edge limit stop prevents over-carving or enamel abrasion.

The X-Mas Tree burs (15-micron grit) deliver a polished finish so smooth that many dentists skip additional polishing points. The 80% diamond-coated bur handles large occlusals and Class V restorations, while the 50% version is perfect for smaller areas—all without risking precious enamel.
