ASAP Indirect+ All Surface Access Polishers received a score of 91% in Dental Advisor's Clinical Evaluation
ASAP INDIRECT+ is an intra-oral, diamond polishing system for indirect ceramic restorations. The diamond-impregnated adjusters in disc, point and cylinder shapes can be used to make minor adjustments or remove scratches introduced by diamond burs during adjustments. Diamond-impregnated pre-polisher (blue) and final polisher (pink) spiral wheels provide for a high-gloss final polish. The adjusters, pre-polishers and final polishers are autoclavable.
ASAP INDIRECT+ is available in a starter kit containing three adjusters (one each in disc, point and cylinder shapes), one spiral wheel pre-polisher (blue) and one spiral wheel final polisher (pink). In addition, a refill pack is available containing two polishers (1 ea: pre-polisher and final polisher), as well as refill packs containing either three pre-polishers, final polishers, or point, cylinder or disc adjusters.
Unique Features
• Color-coded adjusters, pre-polisher and final polisher
• High concentration of diamond particles and durable silicone binder

Clinical Tips
• Great for adjusting screw-retained implant restorations. The intra-oral design allows for efficient adjustment without constant removal of the restoration to adjust it extra-orally.

• Light pressure works best.
