Burnisher-Plugger, Ball-ended 1.5-2.5 mm
A double-ended ball burnisher and plugger used to pack and contour unset composite or amalgam into tooth preparations. Both working ends feature small ball tips, 1.5 mm on one side and 2.5 mm on the other, giving clinicians a two-in-one tool for adapting restorative material to cavity walls and smoothing anatomy across different preparation sizes. Produced by Equate Instruments with autoclavable stainless steel tips and a cushioned ergonomic handle, this instrument is well suited to larger filling surfaces where consistent, controlled pressure matters. Supplied non-sterile for routine in-office steam sterilisation.

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 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.

Ball Burnisher 0.8-1.0 mm - Light Purple Silicone Handle
The Ball Burnisher is a double-ended restorative hand instrument engineered for fine contour refinement and micro-adaptation of directly placed restorations. Its matched ball working tips allow the operator to burnish cavosurface margins on Class II boxes, smooth occlusal pit-and-fissure detail, and adapt composite or amalgam around tight interproximal anatomy. Forged from high-grade stainless steel, the instrument from Equate Instruments is fully autoclavable and corrosion resistant. It is supplied non-sterile so the practice can sterilise it within its established steam sterilisation protocol before first clinical use.
