Instructions for Use / SDS
INTENDED USE:
Dental finishing and polishing points intended as a medical device for the purpose of final polishing on all composite hybrid and nano-filled restorations.
Shape & Shine Polishers have the ability to shape and contour cured composite material as well as create an unrivalled polish, all in a single step. Diamond-impregnated Shape & Shine Polishers can also be used to conservatively contour composite when additional pressure is applied. During polishing, the diamond particles continuously break down, getting smaller in just seconds, and provide a high luster finish to all hybrid and nano-filled composite materials.
INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE:
To Polish Composite: Using a slow speed handpiece between 8,000 – 15,000 RPM, apply light pressure with intermittent water spray in a wiping motion. In just 30 – 60 seconds, a high gloss finish will appear.
To Shape & Polish Composite: Using a slow speed handpiece at between 8,000 – 15,000 RPM, with water spray, apply moderate to heavy pressure in areas requiring re-shaping. Continuously check surfaces, while contouring composites to achieve desired results. After contouring the composite, apply only light pressure with intermittent water spray until a high gloss finish is achieved. PLEASE NOTE: Contouring composite will degrade Shape & Shine Polishers more quickly than polishing alone.
RECOMMENDED STERILIZATION:
Sterilize after each use. Autoclave at 270-275°F/132-135°C
