• Carefully selected set of 17 burs for fast, simple, and precise all-ceramic tooth preparations.
• Includes 2 specially designed depth-cutting burs to create accurate orientation grooves for labial reduction during crown and veneer preparations.
• Sequenced grades of 2 grits for controlled cutting:
• Regular – no marking on the shank
• Super-Fine – yellow band on the shank
• All 17 burs are stored in a hygienic, organized bur stand for convenient storage and easy replacement.

The Shofu All Ceramic Preparation Kit is specially designed with a premium selection of diamond burs to enable simple, efficient, and precise tooth preparation for full-ceramic restorations, inlays/onlays, and veneers. The kit includes 17 burs chosen specifically for clinical applications, providing accuracy and versatility in a wide range of procedures.

Two burs, 896 and 897, are specially designed to create depth-orientation grooves:

• 896 – 0.5 mm depth, ideal for all-ceramic laminate veneer preparation.
• 897 – 1.0 mm depth, suitable for anterior teeth during all-ceramic crown preparation.

Burs 0836 and 836V are intended for preparing anterior teeth, the buccal surfaces of upper and lower premolars, or the cervical area on the lingual surface. Use ½ to ⅔ of the diameter; head length 9 mm, diameter 1.3 mm, tapered at 4°.

Burs 0839 and 839V are designed for the buccal and lingual surfaces of upper and lower molars. For the cervical area, use ⅔ of the diameter; head length 9 mm, diameter 1.5 mm, with a 20° tapered angle.

Burs 0893 and 893V are used for cutting the lingual surface of upper and lower anterior teeth (to maintain occlusal space) and the occlusal surface of lower premolars. Head length: 4.9 mm.

Burs 0899 and 899V are designed to reduce upper premolars and the occlusal surfaces of upper and lower molars while maintaining occlusal space, with a 20° tapered angle.

808V is used after preparation to eliminate free enamel in the cervical area. A lower speed is recommended to avoid chipping the enamel. Head length: 8 mm.

Burs 0833 and 833V are designed for interproximal slicing or box preparation for Class II inlay restorations. Use ½ the diameter, except for the lingual cervical area of lower anterior teeth, where ⅔ of the diameter is recommended. Head length: 9 mm, diameter 1.1 mm, with a 4° taper.

Burs 0825, 825V, 0826, and 826V are designed for occlusal box-form preparations of upper and lower premolars and molars. Specifically, 0826 and 826V are used for upper and lower molars; head length 3.5 mm, diameter 1.5–2 mm, with a 20° taper.

• Recommended load for all burs: 0–0.8 N

Tip: Always adjust speed according to bur type to ensure precision, avoid overheating, and protect enamel integrity.

• 1 x 17pcs of Diamond Points FG in 2 different grits (Regular & Superfine)

Anterior Tooth Preparation

• Slice interproximal area:
• Use the long axis of the bur to make slice cuts.
• Retract tissue with retraction cord after cutting.
• Reduce incisal edge:
• Remove 1.5–2.0 mm of the incisal edge.
• Angle the bur toward the lingual to stay parallel with the incisal line.
• Prepare labial surface:
• Cut lateral guide grooves 1.0 mm deep to guide reduction.
• Reduce labial surface to the depth of the guide grooves.
• Labial and lingual cervical area:
• Cut from the lowest point of the cervical scallop mesially and distally.
• Ensure adequate reduction at the center while avoiding excessive interproximal subgingival removal.
• Prepare lingual space:
• Limit reduction of the axial lingual wall to preserve tooth structure.
• Free enamel at cervical area to allow proper margin placement.
• Shoulder margin preparation:
• Smooth and finish enamel using the outer 1/3 of the bur cutting edge.
• Place the bur vertically on the shoulder margin surface, not parallel to the tooth’s long axis.
• Completed preparation:
• Visualize the final restoration shape while finishing the prep.

Premolar Preparation

• Lower premolar (1st bicuspid):
• Reduce all four surfaces, following the lingual inclination; slight undercut may occur.
• Correct bur placement against the occlusal plane tips the bur toward the buccal surface.
• Reduce buccal cusp apex following the inclined plane angles.
• Occlusal surface:
• Prepare similar to anterior teeth.
• Create broad mesial and distal pits by reducing toward each interproximal direction.

Molar Preparation

• Upper molar:
• Reduce occlusal surface to create proper occlusal space.
• Shape central grooves and side areas for crown pits using the bur top.
• Finishing:
• Smooth and finish occlusal and axial angles using the nipple part of the bur top.
