Clinical Benefits
These polishing stones help clinicians create restorations with reduced surface roughness. As a result, the restoration becomes less plaque retentive and more comfortable for the patient.
In addition, proper finishing reduces sharp resin edges that may irritate soft tissues such as the tongue or cheeks. The controlled abrasive action allows efficient surface refinement without excessive material removal.
