SS WHITE FG CARBIDE BURS #4 PKG.10
Vendor: SS White
SKU: ISS06
Product Description: The SS White FG-4 (Item #17672) is a standard large round carbide bur and a fundamental tool for restorative dentistry. It is specifically designed for the efficient removal of substantial decay and the initial contouring of larger cavity preparations.
In my own words, the #4 is the "heavy lifter" of the round bur series. Its larger spherical head makes it the ideal choice for opening up wide cavities and quickly clearing out bulk areas of soft, decayed tooth structure. Because of its size and plain-cut blade design, it provides smooth, predictable cutting with excellent tactile feedback, allowing you to clearly feel the difference between damaged and healthy tooth tissue. The rounded shape is also a critical safety feature, as it ensures the floor of the preparation is smooth and free of sharp corners that could cause the tooth to crack under pressure.
Key Advantages:
- Efficient Bulk Removal: The 1.4mm head diameter allows for rapid cleaning of larger decayed areas.
- Structural Safety: Creates rounded internal line angles to help distribute biting forces and prevent tooth fractures.
- Tactile Sensitivity: Provides superior "feel" during excavation, ensuring you only remove what is necessary.
- High-Speed Stability: Manufactured with exact concentricity to eliminate vibration and "chatter" during use.
