What is a short shank bur?

It is a friction-grip (FG) bur with a shank shorter than standard, under 18 mm in total length, which gives more working space in small mouths.

What are short shank diamond burs used for?

Pediatric dentistry, patients with reduced mouth opening, and posterior teeth with limited vertical space.

FGSS stands for friction grip short shank. The bur fits a standard friction-grip handpiece.

Which codes are available?

AB2, D1-SS and G4, each in a pack of 5 burs.

Are there pediatric burs in a standard length?

Standard-length FG burs also work on children, but the short shank versions give more room when the mouth is small or the opening is limited.

Short Shank Bur vs Standard FG Bur

A standard FG bur is about 19 mm long. In a small mouth, or when the patient cannot open wide, the handpiece head can hit the opposing teeth or the lips before the bur reaches the tooth. A short shank bur sits deeper in the handpiece, so the head stays lower and you gain working space. Make sure the bur is fully seated in the chuck, because a short shank has less length to hold.

When to Use Short Shank Diamond Burs

Pediatric dentistry: small mouths, primary and newly erupted molars
Reduced mouth opening: after surgery, with temporomandibular joint problems, or in long procedures
Limited interocclusal space: posterior areas with short vertical clearance

For adults with normal opening, the standard high speed FG burs offer the full range of shapes.
