Polishing composite and ceramic materials with Feather Lite polishers can improve the smoothness, color and translucency of any direct or indirect restoration, while enhancing the integration of the biomaterial to tooth structure. The flexible spirals allow the instrument to quickly adapt to any surface for an optimal polished surface. — Douglas A. Terry, DDS Houston, TX
All Feather Lite products should be run at low speeds and sterilized via autoclave in a bur block to maximize the life of the polisher. Intra-oral Feather Lite polishers work best when used with water.

RESTORATIVE ENDODONTICS: A MODERN STANDARD OF CARE There is a paradigm shift taking place in endodontics similar to the movement that took place over twenty years ago in restorative dentistry. Modern material science is allowing us to embrace minimally invasive techniques which maximize the long-term prognosis of the endodontically treated tooth.

ENDODONTICS HISTORIC “Retention Form” for Non-Bonded Amalgam
HISTORIC Large Tapers for Placement of Non-Bonded Melted Gutta Percha
