• The Munce Discovery Burs are by far the best long-shank endo burs available.
• They cut efficiently and do not clog.
• I had never used endodontic burs before. I liked the ability to more easily locate hidden canals and open constricted canals.
• It was easy to maneuver them in the confined space of a root canal opening. The thin shaft was a superb enhancement to the management of tight access!
• Everyone doing endo should keep these on hand.
• Make a friction grip version.
• Package in a sterilizable bur block.

Munce Discovery Burs are carbide endodontic burs designed to uncover hidden canals, locate separated instruments and core-out fiber posts.  In contrast with ultrasonic tips, these burs are heatless and do not create a fine powdery dust.  The burs are latch-style and autoclavable. Munce Discovery Burs are available in three styles: Deep Troughers, Shallow Troughers and Endodontic Cariesectomy Burs. Deep Troughers are 34 mm in length and Shallow Troughers are 31 mm in length. Both styles of Troughers are manufactured with a round carbide head and a narrow, non-flexible shaft to facilitate positive control for deep troughing. The combination of the narrow shaft with the added length provides a functional view corridor beyond the handpiece head. Both Deep and Shallow Troughers are available in six head sizes (#¼, #½, #1, #2, #3, #4). The Endodontic Cariesectomy Burs are available in #6 round head size with a length of 31 mm and the distinct narrow shaft. Munce Discovery Burs are available in variety packs or in individual sizes. This product was evaluated by 23 consultants in 331 uses. These endodontic burs received a 97% clinical rating.
