Intensiv Ortho-Strips® Finishing 25 µm & Polishing 15 µm
Ultra-Smooth Strips for Final Enamel Refinement after IPR

Intensiv Ortho-Strips® 25 µm (Fine) and 15 µm (Polishing) complete the interproximal-reduction workflow by converting mechanically reduced enamel into a glass-smooth, plaque-resistant surface. The central diamond coating and atraumatic strip edges protect cervical areas and soft tissue while the ultra-thin 0.05 mm base passes freely through tight contacts. Available as double-sided, left-sided, right-sided and Central versions to match any clinical scenario.

Key Benefits

• Satin to mirror finish – 25 µm strip smooths; 15 µm strip polishes to ≤ 1 µm Ra roughness.
• Central diamond zone with non-abrasive edges prevents cervical step formation and dentine exposure.
• 0.05 mm stainless-steel core glides through contacts without widening them.
• Colour-coded (white 25 µm, yellow 15 µm) for instant identification chairside.
• Reusable & autoclavable – multilayer natural diamond retains cutting efficiency over many cycles at 134 °C.
• Optimal with Intensiv Swingle®: 0.9 mm stroke / 20 000 osc min⁻¹ for chatter-free polishing.

Clinical Indications

• Final enamel finishing and high-gloss polishing after IPR space creation.
• Smoothing proximal composite or ceramic margins to reduce plaque retention.
• Refining contact-surface texture before retention in orthodontic cases.
