Bennet Burnisher - Solid Handle
The Bennet Burnisher is a double-ended restorative hand instrument with the distinctive fishtail working ends of the Bennet pattern. The split, fan-shaped tips allow the clinician to burnish amalgam and composite into occlusal grooves and marginal ridges, while the broad footprint adapts material along wide cuspal slopes. Manufactured from stainless steel, the burnisher is fitted with a 6 mm solid knurled handle that balances weight evenly for sustained operator control. Equate Instruments supplies it as a reusable autoclavable tool, delivered non-sterile for in-clinic steam sterilisation in pouches or cassettes.

Fig 3 Serrated Modelling Burnisher - Solid Handle 6mm
The Fig 3 Serrated Modelling Burnisher is a single-ended restorative instrument with a textured working tip for packing and shaping amalgam. The serrated face grips the material during adaptation, reducing slip against the cavity walls and helping build defined occlusal anatomy in a single pass. A slim 6 mm knurled stainless-steel handle keeps the instrument light and balanced through extended modelling strokes. Equate Instruments supplies the burnisher non-sterile and fully autoclavable, ready for routine in-clinic steam sterilisation alongside other restorative hand instruments.

Fig. NYU/B2 Solid Handle 6mm
The Fig. NYU/B2 is a double-ended burnisher in the classic New York University B2 pattern for operative finishing. One end features an angled beavertail surface for broad burnishing of amalgam and composite at occlusal and proximal aspects, while the opposing end provides a fine tapered tip for precise marginal adaptation. Crafted from autoclavable stainless steel with a knurled 6 mm solid handle, the Equate Instruments NYU/B2 burnisher is balanced for extended chairside finishing. Supplied non-sterile and compatible with standard steam sterilisation and cassette-based workflows.

Fig. 1 Ball Burnisher 0.8/1.0 mm - 6 mm Solid Handle
The Fig. 1 Ball Burnisher is a double-ended operative instrument designed for burnishing amalgam, adapting matrix bands, and smoothing composite margins. Its 0.8 mm and 1.0 mm ball tips give access to narrow fissures and tight interproximal spaces while producing a smooth, compacted restoration surface. Built by Equate Instruments from hardened stainless steel with a slim fine-ribbed 6 mm handle, the burnisher offers the sensitive grip needed for delicate adaptation. It is fully autoclavable and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic steam sterilisation in pouches or cassettes.

Burnisher 1.5 mm & Plugger 2.5 mm
This double-ended combination instrument pairs a 1.5 mm ball burnisher with a 2.5 mm flat-tipped plugger, giving the clinician one tool to condense, contour, and burnish direct composite or amalgam restorations. The plugger end applies pressure to pack filling material tightly into the preparation, while the ball end refines occlusal anatomy and smooths cavosurface margins. The angled working ends are crafted from stainless steel, and the wide green silicone handle provides a colour-coded, ergonomic grip that reduces pinch-grip fatigue during layered placement. Autoclavable between cases, it is part of the Equate Instruments composite and amalgam restorative range.

Burnisher & Plugger 1.4 / 1.8 mm
The burnisher-plugger is a double-ended restorative instrument that pairs a small ball burnisher on one end with a flat-faced plugger on the other, letting the operator condense, contour, and polish composite or amalgam restorations in a single instrument pass. The contoured silicone-sleeved handle is shaped for fingertip control and remains comfortable through extended operative appointments. Precision-ground stainless-steel working ends hold their edge geometry across repeated sterilisation cycles and the instrument is fully autoclavable. Supplied non-sterile by Equate Instruments for in-office steam processing in pouches or cassettes.

Burnisher
Double-ended dental burnishers are used to smooth and polish restoration margins and to contour amalgam or composite surfaces into occlusal and interproximal anatomy. Each working end presents a small football-profile tip that glides across a setting material without gouging, helping to adapt the restoration to the cavity walls and produce a polished surface. The silicone-sleeved ergonomic handle gives a textured, low-fatigue grip through repeated pushing and sweeping strokes. The stainless-steel working ends are precision-formed and resist deformation from repeated burnishing pressure, and the whole instrument is autoclavable for standard reprocessing. Supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation as part of a restorative tray.

Burnisher 1.5 mm + Spatula 2 mm
This combination restorative instrument pairs a 1.5 mm ball burnisher on one end with a 2 mm flat composite spatula on the other, letting the clinician move between material transport, marginal adaptation, and final burnishing without swapping tools. The ball end contours and polishes composite or amalgam, while the spatula face supports transport and aesthetic modelling of composite increments. The angled working ends are crafted from stainless steel, and the wide yellow silicone handle provides a colour-coded, ergonomic grip that reduces fatigue during layered composite placement. Autoclavable between cases, it is part of the Equate Instruments composite workflow.

Non-Stick Titanium-Coated Burnisher
The Burnisher is a double-ended restorative hand instrument used to adapt, smooth, and polish dental restorations at the finishing stage of operative procedures. The paired working tips shape composite or amalgam against cavosurface margins, reduce surface porosity, and re-emphasise occlusal grooves after condensation, producing a sealed margin that resists microleakage. Both working ends are angled and sized for complementary access on buccal, lingual, and occlusal surfaces of posterior and anterior teeth. A coloured silicone-sleeved handle is textured for a confident wet grip and balanced finger rotation during the burnishing arc. The instrument is autoclavable and supplied non-sterile for in-clinic sterilisation in cassettes or pouches, and is offered by Equate Instruments across multiple tip geometries for restorative workflows.
