Polishing materials for dentists and dental technicians, which are called “paper cones,” are made of sandpaper rolled up into conical or cylindrical shapes. Usually an original paper cone has no shaft, and a fork end shaft sold separately is used. However, a small-sized Mini Cone is supplied with its specified fork end shaft, and other products such as Sharp Mini and Sharp Cone are supplied with an Ohki-invented wood screw type shaft exclusive to fitting. The characteristic is its sharp conical shape and strong retention with low eccentricity. As for an articulating paper for dentists, we are the only company in Japan which uses thick Japanese paper, Washi. The articulating paper is a product into which non-dry ink with rich coloring matter like blue or red is interfused and adsorbed by brushing. By using the paper, coloring can be achieved enough to the occlusion position where pressure is applied, and the grade of pressure can be also indicated.
We sell the polishing materials to dentists and dental technicians on a nationwide scale via wholesale shops of dental materials.
