High-gloss polishing
The restorations are polished to a high gloss using a goat hair brush, cotton or leather buff, as well as Universal Polishing
Paste. Use low speed and limited pressure for high-gloss polishing. Adjust the pressure with the handpiece, not the
polishing motor. In order to optimally polish the interdental areas and occlusal surfaces, we recommend modifying the
goat hair brushes to become star-shaped so that only the desired areas can be polished due to the smaller size of the
brush.
Depending on the type of high gloss desired, leather buffing wheels can be used to achieve a high shine, while cotton
buffs are used to achieve a lesser degree of lustre.
– Microroughness on the finished veneering surface is conductive to plaque accumulation. Therefore, polish
carefully.
– Pay particular attention to crown margins, interdental areas, occlusal surfaces and the basal rest of
pontics.
