Jiffy Composite Polishing Brushes, Pointed

Clinical Overview

The Jiffy™ Pointed Composite Polishing Brush (Code 1009) is a clinician-grade, slow-speed rotary instrument featuring ultra-dense fibre tufts impregnated with fine silicon‑carbide abrasive particles. Designed specifically for finishing and glossing composite and ceramic restorations, the pointed tip enables precise access into occlusal fissures, margins, and confined anatomy—delivering controlled surface refinement without additional paste.

Key Benefits

• Each bristle self-contains abrasive grit: Thousands of silicon‑carbide particles enable consistent, effective polishing without separate polishing paste.
• Pointed tip design: Accesses occlusal grooves, interproximal line angles, and margin transitions with precision.
• Latex-free, autoclavable construction: Brass shank with nickel and gold finish resists corrosion and withstands limited sterilization cycles.
• Optimized operating speed: Perform at 1,000–3,000 RPM with firm “whipping” motions for best finish. Final polish speeds ~5,000–7,500 RPM.
• Economic multipack: 10 brushes per package support high-volume workflows with predictable wear and replacement.

Refill Contents

• 10 × Jiffy™ Pointed Composite Polishing Brush, 2.35 mm latch-type shank (gold-plated), Code 1009
• Each brush features pointed fiber tuft impregnated with silicon‑carbide abrasive

Indications

• Final polishing of composite restorations—especially in occlusal, fissure, and margin areas
• Refinement of ceramic or hybrid-ceramic surfaces in confined anatomical zones
• Enhancing marginal gloss and surface texture after curing or finishing steps
• Ideal for small cavity accesses or interproximal region polishing where cups/discs may not fit

Instructions for Use

1. Attach the Jiffy Pointed Brush securely to a 2.35 mm latch-type slow-speed handpiece.
2. Set the handpiece speed to 1,000–3,000 RPM for controlled polishing motion.
3. Position the brush tip into target restoration area; apply firm, steady pressure and whip the bristles laterally across contours.
4. Transition to higher speed (~5,000–7,500 RPM) for final gloss if desired.
5. Rinse thoroughly with air-water spray and dry; inspect surface gloss and margins under magnification.
6. Single-use recommended—dispose after each patient to prevent cross-contamination and bristle degradation.

Summary

Jiffy™ Pointed Composite Polishing Brushes (Code 1009) provide ultra-precise, self-abrading polishing on composite and ceramic surfaces—especially in tight fissures and margin lines. With silicon‑carbide impregnated bristles and a robust metal shank, they deliver reproducible high-gloss results at low operating speeds. Their pointed design complements traditional Jiffy finishing systems and speeds up aesthetic workflow in adhesive dentistry.
