About bur assortment kits
A bur assortment kit is a mixed set: several shapes, and often several materials, in one block for one kind of work. ISO 8325 covers the whole mixture as rotary instruments, naming burs, cutters, polishers and grinding instruments in the same breath.
A bur kit is a block or case holding an assortment of rotary instruments of different shapes, grits or sizes, sold as one set. What is in the block is still a dental bur: a rotary cutting device made from carbon steel or tungsten carbide, or a diamond instrument whose head carries embedded diamond chips. Both are Class I devices under the FDA listings for the dental bur and the dental diamond instrument.
ISO 6360-1 sets out a fifteen-digit number that identifies any rotary instrument, with the material of the working part, the shank and the overall length each coded in it. That is how two shapes in the same block can be told apart on paper as well as by eye.
How bur assortment kits and diamond assortments differ
- Bur assortment kits — Mixed shapes and often mixed materials, where a diamond assortment is one material in several shapes or grits.
- Diamond assortments — All diamond, so every piece abrades: rotation of a diamond instrument provides an abrasive action when it contacts a tooth.
What to look at when choosing a bur kit
What is in it: shapes are coded by ISO 6360-2, the toothing of burs and cutters by ISO 6360-3, and the characteristics of diamond instruments by ISO 6360-4.
One material or two: a kit may hold carbide shapes, diamond shapes, abrasive stones or polishers, and ISO 8325 covers the test methods for all of them as rotary instruments.
Shank: every instrument in a kit has to match the handpiece it will run in, and the shaft section may be friction gripping or latch-type in form.
The block itself: published guidance says instruments to be stored should be wrapped or placed in containers such as cassettes or organizing trays designed to maintain sterility during storage. The same guidance says instruments should be placed in an appropriate container at the point of use, to prevent injuries on the way to the processing area.
Replacing what is used up: published guidance treats burs as items difficult to clean and tells practices to consider them single-use disposables and discard them after one use, so a kit is refilled rather than reprocessed indefinitely.
