EFFECTIVENESS OF CHILLED BURS IN ELIMINATING PAIN

BERNERD O. A. THOMAS D.D.S., M.S. IN DENT. SURG.1

1 School of Dental and Oral Surgery, Columbia University, New York, N. Y.

The results of this study indicate: 1. The use of chilled burs diminished or eliminated pain in 3 out of 4 patients (76.8 per cent). 2. The chilled bur operated at temperatures ranging from 10° to 23°F. lower than the unchilled bur. 3. The reactions seen in the pulp were of minor importance and occurred as regularly in the teeth operated with the unchilled bur as with the chilled bur.
