Orthopaedic burs are single-use, sterile surgical tools designed to cut or shape bone during procedures like joint replacements, spinal surgeries, or maxillofacial operations. Their rotating cutting heads remove or reshape bone tissue precisely, aiding in surgical precision and reducing trauma to surrounding tissues.
These devices are typically classified as surgical instruments and are regulated under medical device laws, often requiring manufacturer certification for sterility and performance. They are supplied pre-sterilized and intended for one-time use to ensure patient safety and infection control.
