"CompAngle" Composite Sculpturing Brushes
A researcher from the University ofIowa has developed a novel composite dental sculpturing brush called“CompAngle”. This invention is a brush for shaping resin composite before ithardens on the tooth. The brush has a handle that is able to withstand hightemperature sterilization, and is also larger in diameter, making it easier tohold. One brush is attached at each end of the instrument, and is removable anddisposable. The two ends are positioned at specific, unique angles, thushelping it to reach different areas of the mouth. The triangular attachment alsoallows the flat brush to be place on the instrument handle at three differentangles, allowing access to all embrasure areas. There are three (3) sizes oftips, (1) small pointed, (2) medium pointed, and (3) flat. The brushes are alsoavailable in two (2) types of bristles, (1) sable for less viscous resin, and(2) nylon for more viscous resin.
