About polishing pastes
A polishing paste is the loose-abrasive step: published work describes it as the final stage, applied after the sequence of abrasive discs, giving a smooth and glossy surface. A study of diamond pastes found they improved surface roughness, gloss and colour stability, and had no effect on the surface microhardness of the composites. The FDA form of words for the same thing is a device in paste or powder form containing an abrasive material, intended to remove debris from the teeth.
A polishing paste is loose abrasive in a carrier, applied with a cup, brush or wheel rather than mounted on a shank. A glossary defines a polishing agent as any material used to impart lustre to a surface. The FDA regulates the paste or powder form as an oral cavity abrasive polishing agent, a Class I device containing an abrasive material such as silica pumice and intended to remove debris from the teeth (21 CFR 872.6030). The same section says the abrasive polish is applied to the teeth by a handpiece attachment, the prophylaxis cup. That cup has its own FDA listing: a Class I device made of rubber, held by a dental handpiece and used to apply polishing agents during cleaning (21 CFR 872.6290).
Pumice is one of the classical abrasives: a glossary describes it as a type of volcanic glass used as an abrasive, prepared in various grits. Whiting is another, pure white chalk that has been ground and washed, used for polishing dental materials. Modern pastes are more often diamond or aluminium oxide: a review lists diamond polishing pastes among the adjuncts that reached surface roughness below 0.2 microns.
What to look at when choosing a polishing paste
Particle size: a study applied diamond pastes of under one micron, one micron and half a micron and found no statistically significant difference between them. The authors reasoned that no differences were found because all the diamond particle sizes were smaller than one micron.
How it is used: published work reports that the outcome depends on the composition of the paste, how long it is applied, the pressure applied, and whether the procedure is dry or wet.
What carries it: pastes are usually applied with flexible rubber cups, and published work notes that felt polishing brushes and other special abrasives have been suggested to enhance their effect.
What it is used on: a review notes that systems containing diamond particles, or adjuncts such as diamond polishing pastes, reached surface roughness below 0.2 microns.
