Polymeric dental burs are rotary devices designed to be attached to slow speed dental handpieces for removing infected or decayed dentin while preserving healthy tissue. These specialized instruments are crafted from materials like glass-bead-reinforced polymer or polyetheretherketone (PEEK) that deform upon contact with harder, healthy dentin.
These devices are supplied in various shapes including cylinder, disk, sphere, and oval configurations. They are classified as single-use devices and must be replaced after each procedure to ensure safety and effectiveness.
