Diamond burs are the workhorses of crown preparation, contouring, and finishing, and clinicians settle on a handful of trusted shapes and grits they reorder constantly. Cutting efficiency and concentricity vary between manufacturers, so brand consistency matters.
Because diamonds are reordered in volume — and single-use diamonds are discarded after each patient — small differences in price per bur add up quickly. Alara brings diamond burs from your connected vendors into one view so you can compare your go-to shapes and grits on price and availability.
