INSTRUMENT PARTS.

a. blade.
b. shank.
c. handle

SHAFT
Used

as a handle , is straight without


variations in size.

It

may be serrated to increase friction for hand


gripping.

SHANK
It

connects the handle to the blade.


It is here where any angulation in the
instrument can be given.

BLADE
It

is the functional end of the instrument.It


is connected to the handle by the shank.
The blade ends in cutting edge.


CUTTING
It

EDGE .

is the working part of the


instrument . It is usually in the
form of a bevel with different
shapes

BLADE ANGLE.
It

is defined as the angle


between the long axis of the
blade and long axis of the
shaft

CUTTING

EDGE ANGLE.

It

is defined as angle between


the margin of the cutting edge
and the long axis of the shaft
.

INSTRUMENT NOMENCLATURE
G.

V Black described dental instruments as


follows.
The order denotes the purpose of the
instrument ,eg excavator , scaler .
The suborder denotes the position or manner of
use of the instrument ,e.g. push or pull.
The class describes the form of the blade ,e.g.
hatchet, chisel.
The subclass denotes the angle or shape of the
shank.e.g straight- no angle

INSTRUMENT FORMULA

The width of the blade in


tenths of millimeters.

formed between cutting edge
and central axis of shaft.

instruments.
Circumferentially

Single ended and double
ended instruments.

1.DIRECT CUTTING AND LATERAL


CUTTING INSTRUMENTS.
A direct

cutting instrument :
The force applied in the same plane as that of
the blade and handle ; it is called single planed
instrument.
Have 2 or more curves or angles in their
shanks ,and in the same plane as the handle.
Used in direct or lateral cutting.

Lateral cutting instruments:


The force applied at a right angle to the
plane of blade and handle.
Are called double planed instruments
Have an angle or curve in a plane at a right
angle to that of handle.
Used in lateral cutting.

2.CONTRANGLING.

Have one or more angles in


shank placing the working point
within 3mm from the axis of
handle.

This principle of design is called


contrangling.

A short blade and small blade


angle requires only bi anglecontrangling .

While longer blade and greater blade angles requires triple


angle contrangling .

3 .RIGHT AND LEFT INSTRUMENTS.


Direct

instruments are made either right or


left by placing a bevel on one side of the
blade.
If the the cutting edge down and pointing
away from the operator and the bevel is
on the right side ,it will be right
instrument.
If the bevel is on the left ,it will be a left
instrument.
These are all single planed instruments.

SINGLE ENDED AND DOUBLE ENDED


INSTRUMENTS.
Double

ended instruments incorporating the right and


left or the mesial and distal form of the instrument in
the same handle.
Single ended instrument have only one specific
function.

EXCAVATORS
THESE ARE DESIGNED FOR EXCAVATION REMOVAL OF CARIOUS
DENTIN AND FOR THE SHAPING OF THE INTERNAL PARTS OF CAVITIES.
HOE EXCAVATOR.
SPOON EXCAVATOR.
DISCOID EXCAVATOR.
CLEIOD EXCAVATOR.
HATCHET EXCAVATOR.

SPOON EXACAVATORS.

A.bin-angle spoon

B.Triple angle spoon

C.spoon

HOE EXCAVATOR.

Used for cutting mesial and distal walls of


premolars and molars.

DISCOID EXCAVATOR

These are disc like .


Have a blade which is circular in shape.
Cutting edge extending around the periphery except where it is
joined to the shank.
It is used for the same purpose and in the same manner as a spoon
excavator.
It is double planed instrument right or left cutting movements.

CLEOID EXCAVATOR.
It resembles a claw
,hence the name cleoid.
It is essentially a spoon
excavator except the
blade comes to a point.
It is double planed
instrument with lateral
cutting movements.
Used in carving amalgam
and excavating decay.

CHISEL
THESE ARE INTENDED FOR CUTTING ENAMEL. IT USUALLY BEVELLED ON ONE SIDE .

STRAIGHT CHISEL.
MONO ANGLE CHISELS.
BI ANGLE CHISELS.
TRIPLE ANGLE CHISELS.

STRAIGHT CHISELS.
Have a straight blade in line
with the handle and shank.
The cutting edge is on one side
only, with the bevel of the hand
running at a right angle to the
shaft.

They are single planed


instruments
with 5 possible cutting
movements.

The shank has one or more angles


or curves. ENAMEL
HATCHET.
The blade is in same plane ,parallel
with the shaft.
Cutting edge is in the form of a
bevel parallel to the shaft; either
paired or may be bibevelled.
These are single planed
instruments with vertical, push,
pull, and either right or left lateral
cutting.
Smaller size for anterior teeth,
and larger size for posterior
teeth

SPECIAL FORMS OF CHISELS


These designed to perform specific functions.
ENAMEL HATCHETS.
GINGIVAL MARGIN TRIMMERS.
ANGLE FORMERS.
WEDELSTEADT CHISELS.
OFFSET HATCHETS.
TRIANGULAR CHISELS.
HOE CHISELS.
HATCHETS OR OFFSET HATCHETS.

GINGIVAL MARGINAL TRIMMERS.

Similar to spoon excavators and


the cutting edge similar to single
bevelled hatchets.
2 types are;
1.

2.

Distal gingival margin


trimmers.
Mesial gingival margin
trimmers.

They are used for creating the


proper bevel of the gingival
floors and also for forming
sharp angles in internal parts of
cavity preparations.
They are also used in pull and
push motions.

RESTORATIVE INSTRUMENTS
CEMENT SPATULAS
Several types of spatulas are available in the market
differing in shape and size.
On the basis of size, cement spatula can be classified into:
- large
- small

PLASTIC FILLING INSTRUMENT

These instruments have a small metal ball at the working


end. They are used to mix, carry and place cements.
CONDENSER

It is used to deliver the restoration to the tooth preparation


and for proper condensation

AMALGAM CARRIERS
To pack amalgam material in to the tooth preparation,
amalgam carriers are used.
They carry the freshly prepared restorative material in to the
tooth.

CARVERS
They are used to contour the restoration.
Sharp cutting edges present in carvers are used to sharpen
and form tooth anatomy from a restoration.

BURNISHERS
For final condensation of amalgam
Initial shaping of occlusal anatomy of amalgam
COMPOSITE RESIN INSTRUMENT
A wide range of double ended instruments are used
to transport and place resins
They are made up of plastic or titanium coating

Those instruments which rotate on an axis to do the work of


ROTARY CUTTING INSTRUMENTS
abrading and cutting on tooth structure.

TYPES :
- Handpiece
- Bur
HANDPIECES

The first rotary instruments were drill or bur heads that were
twisted with the fingers for crude cutting of the tooth tissue

TYPES OF HAND PIECE


Contra-angle hand piece
Head of handpiece is first angled away from and
then back towards the long axis of the handle
a.Airoter contraangle handpiece-it gets power from
the compressed air supplied by the compressor. It
has high speed and low torque.

Micromotor handpiece

In straight handpiece long axis of the bur lies in


same plane as long axis of handpiece.

DENTAL BURS
It is a rotary cutting instrument which has bladed
cutting edge.
They are used to remove tooth structure either by
chipping or grinding.

CLASSIFICATION OF BURS

attachment

latch type

friction grip

tungston carbide

combination

According to their motion

left bur

According to the length of their head

long
short
regular

According to their use

cutting burs

finishing burs

polishing burs

According to their shape

pear-shaped
wheel shaped
tapering fissure
straight fissure
end cutting bur

round bur

inverted cone bur

BUR DESIGN
BUR BLADE
It is the projection on the bur head which forms a
cutting edge.it has two surfaces
rake face-surface of bur lade on the leading edge
clearance face-surface of bur blade on the trailing
edge

RAKE ANGLE -angle between rake face and radial line


Positive rake angle-when rake face trails the
radial line.

Negative rake angle-when rake face is ahead of


radial line.

Zero rake angle-when rake face and radial line


coincide each other.

RADIAL LINE
It is the line connecting center of the bur and the
blade.
LAND
It is the plane surface immediately following the cutting
edge.
CLEARANCE ANGLE
This is the angle between the clearance face and the
work.

BLADE ANGLE

it is the angle between the rake face and the clearance


face.
CONCENTRICITY

it is a direct measurement of symmetry of the bur head.


RUN-OUT
it measures the accuracy with which all the tip of blades
pass through a single point when bur is moving.
