Technique

  • IPR may be carried out using abrasive metal strips, diamond-coated disks, or air-rotor stripping burs and abrasive coated strips.
  • Metal strips may be more appropriate than disks for rotated teeth.
  •  Diamond disks must be used properly so as not to leave undercuts on the enamel or come into contact with the patient's soft tissue. 
  • When using air-rotor burs, it is recommended that the tips be squared-off so that they do not leave furrows. 
  • Burs also tend to produce a rough finish on the enamel surface.
