The Use of CVD Diamond Burs for Ultraconservative Cavity Preparations: A Report of Two Cases

Abstract

This clinical report presents the benefits of using CVD diamond burs coupled with an ultrasonic handpiece in the treatment of incipient caries. CVD diamond burs coupled with an ultrasonic device offer a promising alternative for removal of carious lesions when ultraconservative cavity preparations are required. Additionally, this system provides a less-painful technique for caries removal, with minimal noise.
