Sof-Lex™ Spiral Finishing and Polishing Wheels, System Kit

5082SK Sof-Lex™

 

Lex™ Spiral Finishing and Polishing Wheels are the versatile tools after the initial contouring! Their innovative new product design makes dental finishing and polishing easy and convenient.
  • Their unique, flexible shape easily adapts to irregular, convex and concave tooth surfaces.
  • Anterior and posterior restorations can be finished and polished with one tool for each step, no need to switch between points, cups discs and brushes.
  • All parts of the spiral wheel can be used: side, top, bottom and edge. Therefore, the spiral wheels are effective from any angle.
  • The fine finishing wheel (beige) smoothes and removes scratches in restorations that develop during contouring, and prepares the surface for high gloss polishing.
  • The superfine polishing wheel (white) creates a very smooth, high-gloss polish.
  • Sof-Lex™ Spiral Finishing and Polishing Wheels are for single use and work without paste and water cooling.

Convincing Performance

Performance for finishing and polishing systems is typically evaluated by measuring surface gloss, surface roughness and heat generation.

Surface gloss or reflectance indicates how polished or shiny the surface can become after treatment. A high gloss attainment indicates a shiny, more reflective surface. The study shows Sof-Lex™ Spiral Finishing and Polishing Wheels produce a smooth gloss surface better than or equal to the industry’s leading products.

Surface roughness actually measures how rough or smooth the surface is before and after treatment. Sof-Lex™ Spiral Finishing and Polishing Wheels produce a smoother or similar surface roughness compared to the industry-leading products.

  • The surface roughness can be quantified using surface profilometers. A profilometer drags a stylus over the surface. In this case, Ra (average surface roughness expressed in units of height) is the parameter reported. The lower the Ra (average surface roughness), the smoother the surface.
  • SEMs can be used to observe the actual surface roughness.
