ROCK HILL, South Carolina—Launched in the spring of 2011at the International Dental Show in Cologne, Germany, KOMET USA’s ceramic lab cutters are a dental laboratory innovation.KOMET ceramic lab cutters feature heads fabricated of a durable, high-performance ceramic that poorly conducts heat. This prevents the working part from heating up quickly as long as they are used with care and low pressure. The cutters allow acrylic materials to be precisely shaped, trimmed, and cut with less risk of heat build-up. Thus the operator reduces risk of burn injuries when changing the instrument.KOMET launches ZR polishersAccording to Dr. Joseph Massad, founder of the Massad Center for Removable Prosthodontics in Tulsa, Okla., “When I used KOMET’s ceramic lab bur, I was amazed at how smooth it cut acrylics and soft liners. It was unique in that it didn’t collect debris in its flutes. With this ceramic bur, you can feel the smoothness of its cutting action while you use it. It’s like using a hot knife on butter.”These reliable, long-lasting cutters from KOMET USA are constructed to eliminate clogging during use. Offered in two configurations—convex-shaped (K251ACR.104.060) and tapered (K79GSQ.104.040)—KOMET ceramic cutters for acrylics have a distinctive appearance that helps simplify identification.For more information, call (888) 566-3887 or visit www.komet-usa.com.To comment on this product, go to community.pennwelldentalgroup.com/.
