Used burs should be considered as contaminated and appropriate handling precautions should be taken during reprocessing. Gloves, eye protection and a mask should be worn. Other measures may be required if there are specific infection or cross-contamination risks from the patient.
With the exception of steel burs, which are single use devices, reprocessing will have little effect on dental burs. The end of life is determined by wear and damage in use and the burs should be inspected for defects during the preliminary cleaning process.
