Gold Cura Minimally Invasive Cavity Preparation Bur Kit FG-115 – Pack of 8 Coarse Burs

The Gold Cura FG-115 Minimally Invasive Cavity Preparation Bur Kit contains 8 coarse diamond burs with friction-grip shanks for conservative cavity access, fissure opening, micropreparation and restorative cavity refinement. Its small working heads and selected long-neck shapes help the dentist reach confined areas with better visibility while limiting unnecessary removal of healthy enamel and dentine.

Quick answer: FG-115 is an eight-bur, coarse diamond micropreparation kit for use in a compatible high-speed air-turbine or airotor handpiece. It is designed for qualified dental professionals performing minimally invasive and restorative procedures.

Why Small-Head and Long-Neck Burs Are Useful

Conventional bur heads and necks can obstruct the operating field in small cavities. The FG-115 assortment combines compact working heads with selected long-neck designs to improve the line of sight, including during treatment under loupes or a dental microscope. The narrower access may help preserve more sound tooth structure when the clinician selects the smallest suitable bur for the procedure.

Standard FG-115 Bur Configuration

Configuration note: This is the standard FG-115 eight-bur configuration. Check the markings on the supplied burs when an exact replacement code is clinically or commercially important.

Key Features

• Pack of 8 coarse diamond burs
• FG friction-grip shanks for compatible high-speed air-turbine or airotor handpieces
• Small-head and selected long-neck micropreparation designs
• Multiple shapes for fissure opening, cavity access, caries removal and internal refinement
• Improved visibility in confined preparations and under magnification
• Procedure-focused arrangement for minimally invasive and restorative dentistry

Clinical Applications

• Opening stained or carious pits and fissures where clinically indicated
• Conservative access to localised carious lesions
• Substance-preserving opening of deeper lesions
• Micropreparation and internal cavity refinement
• Access to undermining caries
• Internal proximal-wall and contour refinement
• Selected conservative endodontic access or refinement under clinical judgement

Handpiece and Shank Compatibility

The burs use FG friction-grip shanks, typically 1.6 mm, for a compatible high-speed dental air-turbine or airotor handpiece. They are not RA latch-type burs for a slow-speed contra-angle. Confirm that the bur seats fully and securely in the handpiece chuck before use.

Suggested Clinical Use

1. Diagnose the lesion and select the smallest bur that provides the required access.
2. Use a compatible high-speed handpiece with appropriate water spray and suction according to the handpiece and bur instructions.
3. Apply light, controlled and intermittent pressure rather than excessive force or prolonged stationary contact.
4. Change bur shape as the procedure moves from access to caries removal, contouring or refinement.
5. Inspect the preparation under direct vision or magnification and stop when the clinical objective is achieved.

Product Specifications

Cleaning, Sterilisation and Safety

• Inspect every bur before use and discard any instrument that is bent, damaged, corroded or worn.
• Clean and sterilise reusable burs according to the supplied product instructions and the clinic's validated protocol.
• Use suitable eye protection, water spray and high-volume suction.
• Avoid excessive lateral pressure, overheating and unnecessary removal of sound tooth structure.
• The term “minimally invasive” describes the intended treatment philosophy; the clinical outcome depends on diagnosis, bur selection and operator technique.

The burs use FG friction-grip shanks for a compatible high-speed air-turbine or airotor handpiece. They are not RA latch-type burs.

Can it be used for fissure caries?

Yes. The assortment can support fissure opening and conservative access to localised caries where clinically indicated.

Can it be used under magnification or a dental microscope?

Yes. Small-head and long-neck designs can improve the clinician's line of sight and reduce obstruction under magnification.

Can it be used for endodontic access?

Selected burs may support conservative endodontic access or refinement when the treating dentist considers them appropriate.

Is FG-115 coarse or fine?

The Gold Cura FG-115 is the coarse eight-bur kit. FG-116 is commonly used as the fine counterpart in comparable minimally invasive systems.
