Inspired by the demand for speed and safety with motorized interproximal reduction (IPR), Supra IPR, a division of ContacEZ, has unveiled its latest product, SupraDisc, which is a safe-edged diamond disc. Designed for use with Invisalign, ClearCorrect, eCligner, Six Month Smiles, and other orthodontic treatments, SupraDisc offers orthodontists and general dentists a fast, safe, and efficient way to successfully perform IPR, which has often been a worrisome, stressful procedure, the company reports.

Made in Germany using only the highest quality materials, Supra IPR says, the unique design and technology of diamond coating leaves the outside of the disc uncoated and nonabrasive, guiding the path of the disc along the space between the teeth and preventing the edge from grinding deep cuts into the tooth. Additionally, this design helps ease initial entry between the teeth, according to the company, helping doctors guide the disc straight down into the interproximal space. These benefits, in turn, significantly reduce chair time, decrease operator stress, and improve patient safety, Supra IPR reports. SupraDiscs are 19 or 22 mm in diameter and are available in top-, bottom-, and dual-coated versions.
