The Fissurotomy® Bur allows for exploration of fissures. It is virtually pain-free and creates an ideal cavity form. You can explore and restore in just 3-5 minutes.
Developed in collaboration with Temple University, the Fissurotomy® instrument head shape allows early
diagnosis and conservative preparation of fissure caries, often without the use
of anaesthesia. A conservative method for the diagnosis and treatment of
hidden caries.
• Tip of bur is smaller and more conservative than 1/4 round.
• Fine carbide tip will not strip quickly like thin diamonds.
• Virtually pain free to the DEJ... in most cases no anaesthesia is needed.
• Ideal cavity preparation form for a flowable
composite.
• Cleaner, more controlled and less costly than air abrasion.
RESULT: CONSERVATIVE

“Watch and Wait’ is not acceptable treatment. Early
detection and complete caries removal with Fissurotomy® Burs
is truly ultraconservative dentistry...(in most
cases) anaesthetic is almost totally eliminated...”

Decay Present A cross section of the same tooth confirms your
suspicion. It clearly shows the lesion deep in the enamel and the
dentin. No X-Ray Evidence Radiographs do not detect
all occlusal lesions. Enamel thickness can be deceptive.
You’re still suspicious. No Stick Surface of fissure in
enamel looks relatively healthy, and the explorer does not
detect lesion. But you’re suspicious because of the
decalcification and subsurface staining. For the
