ORTHO INDUSTRY NEWS Q-Finisher Delivers Accuracy, Efficiency & Comfort Field reports on the clinical applications of KOMET Q-Finishers ® indicate the instru-ment demonstrates outstanding perfor-mance when employed for orthodontic-debond-ing procedures. Origi-nally engineered and designed to simplify and enhance the effi-cient trimming and finishing of composite restorations, the KOMET Q-Finisher bur incorporates a unique cross-cut that delivers optimal operator accuracy, operative efficiency and patient comfort. For orthodontic debonding, the KOMET Q-Finisher carbide’s non-cutting tip minimizes the potential for tissue impingement and trauma. For composite-restorative procedures, the non-cutting tip makes the KOMET Q-Finisher the instrument of choice for the trim-ming and finishing of labial/facial restorations. Manufactured of high-quality tungsten carbide with precision engineering and supe-rior attention to clinical detail and operative requirements, the KOMET Q-Finisher bur is delivered in pack-ages of five instruments of a single size.
