for orthodonticsceramiccutting

In orthodontics as well as partial and combi-nation dentures, acrylics are combined withmétal brackets, retentions, connectors,plates, springs and wires. The operationalsequence requires that the hard métal con-structions be processed first, followed byacrylics which are considerably softer.Orthodontie appliances are frequentlyadjusted at a later stage. It is a commonoccurrence in both cases that during workon the transition areas between acrylics andmétal, the already polished métal surfacesare roughened or damaged by inadvertentcontact with the bur. Reworking of dentalbrackets and springs tends to weaken theirstructure and leads to heat générationwhich can damage the acrylics very quickly.Worse yet, if a wire or attachment isdamaged by a bur, the entire construction isoften rendered useless and work has to berestarted from scratch. To solve thisproblem, Komet has corne up with a brilliantsolution - the new Soft Cutter: Made of aspécial material, this new, extra-gentlecutter has been designed to avoid overly aggressive work. Instead, it facilitates detailed work in these critical areas without inadvertently roughening or damaging the metal elements. Advantages: •Special cutter made of high-tech material designed for detailed work •Softer than metal •No damage to brackets, connectors, orthodontic wires, springs and retentions •No heat-related damage to acrylics •Suitable for the dental laboratory and the dental practicental laboratory and the dental practice
