NeoDiamond X-Class: Where ‘X’ Marks the Spot

In the pursuit of hidden treasure, an “X” on the map signifies a location where there is immense promise for uncovering something extraordinary. Fueled by curiosity and excitement, every step brings the explorers even closer to their long-awaited discovery.

On a similar quest to find the most elite diamond burs for everyday restorative procedures and tooth preparations, Dr. Eric Van Zytveld found that Microcopy’s NeoDiamond X-Class burs mark the spot for supreme efficiency.

“The extra coarseness of the X-Class burs, along with them being single-patient-use, results in efficient removal of tooth structure with less trauma to the tooth,” Dr. Van Zytveld said. “I especially feel that they shorten the time necessary to prepare teeth for crowns.”

Exceptional, Cutting-Edge Features

Adding 10 extra-coarse diamond burs to the popular NeoDiamond portfolio, the X-Class features 213-μ diamonds bonded to a cut-to-grit shank. With exceptional sharpness, cutting efficiency, and durability, clinicians can handle challenging restorations with ease.

“These extra-coarse X-Class burs have numerous cutting edges that facilitate quick and efficient tooth removal,” Dr. Van Zytveld said. “I have found that cutting through old ceramic and metal crowns is less time consuming than it was with a less coarse bur.”

Additionally, each X-Class bur is single-patient-use and individually wrapped to prevent cross-contamination and ensure staff and patient safety. “Their single-use design ensures a sharp and sterilized bur with every preparation, and the burs are durable enough to prepare at least 2 teeth,” Dr. Van Zytveld added.

The Most Efficient Diamond Burs

With a wide variety of sizes, shapes, and grits available in the NeoDiamond X-Class line, each X-Class bur is marked with 2 black bands to easily differentiate them from their coarse-grit counterparts. Dr. Van Zytveld said that he used a flat-end taper bur to quickly section a 3-unit porcelain-fused-to-metal bridge, and he plans to continue buying the pear-shaped bur after realizing how well it could remove composite restorations.

“The NeoDiamond X-Class burs deliver more precise results because they tend to chatter and bounce less. They ultimately provide more exact preparations in less time,” he said. “These are the coarsest and most efficient diamond cutting burs I have tried.”
