Burnishers Calcium Hydroxide Placer Pich

Liners go on in tiny amounts, often in the deepest part of a preparation. A calcium hydroxide placer gives you a small, smooth end that picks up the paste and sets it down exactly where you want it. This one is the Pich pattern. Our supplier lists it among its burnishers, which is why the product name joins both words.

Why a Placer Sits With the Burnishers

A placer and a burnisher share the same idea: a rounded, polished end that does not cut. However, the job differs. A burnisher smooths and adapts a restoration, while a placer carries and spreads liner. The catalogue names this item Burnishers Calcium Hydroxide Placer Pich, so we keep that full name to help you match it on reorder.

Placing a Thin, Even Liner

• Mix the liner on a pad and collect a small bead on the tip.
• Touch the bead to the deepest point of the cavity floor.
• Then spread it with light strokes, keeping it off the walls.

Because excess liner weakens the base of a restoration, less material usually works better. Wipe the tip between applications so the paste does not build up.

Pich Pattern, Single Option

This page offers one instrument with no size choices. If you need several shapes for finishing, the separate burnishers page lists numbered patterns and pairs. So most assistants keep the Pich placer in the liner kit and the burnishers on the restorative tray.

Before shipping, a member of our team inspects every Pich placer in the United States for a smooth, burr-free tip. It comes non-sterile; therefore, clean away dried paste and autoclave before use on a patient. In addition, the placer is protected for three years against manufacturing defects tied to how it was produced.

The Pich placer’s steel is graded to ASTM F899. See also the numbered burnishers for finishing, the diagnostic, periodontal and restorative category, and our FAQs for dental buyers.
